.

Rare I drive with them on, but if i do its either when its just going dark with just sidelights (there not actually that bright on the C's, and ive found them to be less dazzling than normal headlights... Maybe its just me ). Also use them when going down country lanes sometimes as they pick out the kurbs and dips in the road better, and add a little more light .

the ironic thing is, they are useless in fog, and only have some assistance when its raining heavily and there is a lot of surface spray. Fog lights in fog tend to work negatively, and just reflect off the water particles.

Funny how ppl say it dazzles them, when they are no brighter than dipped beam, and mounted lower down.

i drive my car with jus my half lights and fogs most the time 8-)...find they light up enough road majority of the time that i need to see while the street lights are on and they arent as dazzling as one would think they are (at least not as much as the full lights) on my corsaC...

I prefer the P1 with its covers on personally, never been a fan of spot lights and the cocks that have to drive with them on! People think their car has something "special" on it cos its got two extra front lights?





Any my old 200sx's fog lights hade to make way for intercooler pipework! What a shame!

It pisses me off cos it does blind you when people have their front fogs on. On country roads I do actually find them very useful in my girlfriends Saxo. Country roads are the only time I would use them if I had them on my own car

Rear fog lights are the worst IMO! The silly thing is that there is a fuck off bright light on the dash warning you that they are on but people still drive round with them on when its not foggy!!! IIRC you are only meant to use rear fogs when there are no cars in close proximity to you anyway, its just to warn any cars coming up behind in thick fog you are there and once they get close to you then you are meant to turn them off. I could be wrong but thats what Im sure you are meant to do.
