Hey All

I must admit I tend to drive with the front fogs on in the rain in daylight as Pure Silver/Black does tend to blend into the background just a little too much for my comfort factor. Also use them on the highway during daylight hours as well.

Also the six light effect at night with Headlights, Parks and Fogs does look good

just watched 'the italian job' recently...damn those lights look good when they're driving along, whether it be flying through the tunnels or during the daylight chase scenes....hmm ok so those cars had 'fog' lights as well as the 'driving' lights and they seemed to be on all the time. ok i know it's a movie but hmmm that surely would be illegal here wouldn't it? coz if it's not, i'm installing those driving lights asap and i'm, gonna have them on all the time! ok so i like to show off....sue me!
oh and don't those driving lights only turn on when high beams are on?? didn't seem like the hight beams were on during the movie....can that be done for our cars?

WSW,
I'm pretty sure that it's illegal to have spotlights which come on any other time than at High beam. You also have to have another switch to independently turn them on and off.
I do agree that they look pretty cool - but being cool and being legal are sometimes two different things.

Dutchy.

Sadly INIMINI is gone, but never forgotten.
