Posted 31/05/04 01:46 PM Share Posted 31/05/04 01:46 PM The REAR FOG lights on all cars bother me. Why is this so you ask?....Because the design parameters for a REAR FOG light call for it to be of high intensity so that in a heavy fog, you don't run up its arze.......!!Those rear fog lights piss me off no end. I find them mainly on those stupid bloody Hyundai's. Usually driven by 18-20year old females with no bloody idea. I bet most arn't even aware that they have that light or that it's bloody on. We should make a special penalty for this. If caught with the rear fog light on, confiscate there mobile phone for 24 hours. This would solve the problem in less than a week. Geea. Nah,your over-reacting. this problem is easly solved in the carpark with a 3/8 inch steel pipe applied to the aformentioned foglights. I like the way you think 6fan. So which car park we going to do first. :o Geea. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/11000-fog-light-rant/page/8/#findComment-128845 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggy Member 47 Member For: 21y 17d Location: Mount Annan , NSW Posted 02/06/04 10:03 PM Share Posted 02/06/04 10:03 PM guys lets think , as a motor bike rider I have my lites on all the time , it helps to be seen and as you all seem to point out you see these people with there fog lites on . If they are truely fog lites then they will not glare into the oncoming traffic's eyes as they are focused just ahead of the car so that in fog you don't get the glare back in your own eyes. The aim of the game is to be seen and not hit. Sorry but when I fell the need to have them on I will put them on, especialy on country roads.My 2 cents worth Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/11000-fog-light-rant/page/8/#findComment-129757 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's legal, the lights are mounted higher and therefore are easer to see and other people won't mistake you for a SS commadore.

Slymeat Team Kickass Donating Members 1,926 Member For: 21y 3m 19d Gender: Male Location: Albion Park, NSW Posted 09/06/04 06:04 AM Share Posted 09/06/04 06:04 AM Got a pair of 10,000 Lumin night suns, as soon as I can wire them up I'm going to replace my foggies with them. Then everyone will be able to see me in the middle of the day, might make the high beams a bit inefective though. If anything is rice it's driving with foglights on.
