No, almost never use the fogs. I guess I'm lucky as we don't have too much fog around here.

I dont think fog lights are actually very functional. They dont actually improve visibility in the fog. I ALWAYS have them on though for looks.

And you still lose...

Yes I leave them on...it's a good way for me to let my friends know which car is which. My friend has yellow fogs which I'll be doing soon too so once I get mine in, it should be easier to find each other on the road. Not a lot of people here have yellow fogs...they all stick to the standard white ones or try to match the headlights.

I do not in my late 30's. When I was younger though it seemed much more important to have them and ride with them on all the time.

On, all the time, Ody, too.

You're getting old and can't see, just like me, Hondo.

All you young guys, just wait until you turn 40, one minute you can read anything, then, like stepping off a cliff, you go straight to blind. Damnedest thing I've ever....*not*....seen!

I do not. I usually only use them on dark roads and rural roads in lieu of high beams.

If it was an easy mod to turn them on with the amber lights i'd do it. But I don't run the HID's unless I have to.

I'd love to run just my DRL's/ambers/and fogs.

Honestly tho when a TSX is comin from behind (SUPER NO HOMO) for a split second it looks like the new camry, but if it was the new camry and it had the v6 I'd let it pass cuz it would smoke the TSX I'm pretty sure haha
