TIA Forgive the rant but what do you need them for? Are you going to be one of those people on the busy freeway blinding everybody with their foglamps? Sure the fog lamp might add a shred of visibility for you (on the busy highway) but I personally have never seen that. The problem is, if I, or anybody else can't see because we're blinded by your foglamps then we crash and you get a nice clear view of us wrecking our car. Extreme example perhaps, but think before you use those things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Driving lights are the ones that blind other drivers. I love mine, I live in some what rural Colorado and they add tons of visibly to my commute. Plus the help with ground blizzards and other adverse weather conditions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeansain Posted December 17, 2004 Author Share Posted December 17, 2004 There are 2 holes on my bumper where they used to be. The switch is already on the dash. I guess they broke and the PO didn't bother to replace them. It seems that Hella makes a pair that bolts right on. Anyone knows which model?
