Ken.K Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 So this might sound like a noob thing but I just found out had to use my Foglights 🙃🙃[emoji1][emoji1]. Trying to figure out if I actually had it or they were blown. They work so going to change them and the sidelights to 6000k. And use them as drls. I already put my sidelights on anyways so might as well just add my foglightsSent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will not use them then just use sidelights. Do you know the right bulbs for the sidelights. Am seeing they are 501 but not sure.

jmurray01 Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 I do like being physically exhausted and therefore knowing I will get a good sleep tonight. Normally (due to my office job) I am very tired mentally, but can't sleep because my body isn't tired enough!! I also like having three working vehicles outside again. I hate seeing anything not doing its job (people included!), so it was depressing me seeing the 405 stagnating for weeks whilst it couldn't be started. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken.K Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Did not know it was illegal to convert them to drl, Just googled it and yeah it is illegally to have your foglights on although you can have your sidelights on as most modern cars use this as Drl. Unless they have fancy stuff on thereSent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's pretty good, round here 1 in 5 cars have their fog lamps on, and a lot of the time it is because one of the dipped bulbs is blown! It's getting ridiculous really. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Half of people don't know the fog light law, other half don't care.I pulled one driver a while back who argued the toss about them, he swore blind they were drl's until I pointed out the fog light sign on his dash.He must of thought my eyes were painted on [emoji41]Sent from my SM-G930F 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a news story recently, I think it was in China, if a driver is caught using their high beams when they aren't needed they have to sit in front of them staring at them for a full minute. Can't we do this to people who drive with their fog lights on when it's not foggy? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanW Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 vauxhalls and glow plugs!!! , they dont have problems with glow pkugs................ much. lol Thought they warmed up quite nicely without glow plugs lolMy like is almost related to the fog lights thing...rear though - the bulbs are NOT as listed in the book, but are very quick and easy to change...under a minute per side!Unlike the headlamps!! Just fitted Nightbreakers after my ns dipped beam blew the other day.Also washed the car as my other half pointed out that neither of my numberplates were readable through the dirt...oops lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
