one of my foglights is dead honkey

anyone know how much they are worth

on the s2 front bar

[krzysiu]

Thought the globes in the fog lights are h1 like the headlights

[paulr33]

if they are, thats good

was hoping they were std globe and not some uber spec light assembly in one piece

will check it out when i care and can be bothered

dont drive my car to work so not urgent urgent

[HEKT1K]

foglights are illegal anyway

edit: +1 to them being the same bulbs as headlights

[paulr33]

white ones or yellow ones? or regardless of colour?

[Rekin]

white ones or yellow ones? or regardless of colour?

All foglights are illegal regardless of colour, pretty lame. Unless they turn on with the headlights then they are legal, but if there is a separate switch then they are classified as foglights

[Basti]

i thought it was h3c fo the foggies? what i have in mine. check the lights thread that in diy section

[KURAUN]

the 32 and the evo both had the foggies in the headlights (both use a switch for them, 32 was the sedan h4 n1 style light)

how does that work then when they came from factory like that but dont turn on when you headlights go on?

[paulr33]

yeah R33 S2 is the same, factory and seperate switch for them

I have a button on top of the dash. Near the rear window demister for the foglights

[KURAUN]

same button on 32

my car did originally come with extra foggies in the front bar to

[Rekin]

the foglight button would turn on the foggies and the parkers, but i think law means that when you switch to headlights the foglights will then turn on. Some crappy outdated law. I wonder if there is a law for the white LED strips under all the headlights

Cant edit previous post;

thermofans ftw

[krzysiu]

Still pointless for the street or for 3-4 laps around a circuit your brakes will be fried before cooling will be an issue pretty cool tho

some confusion between fog and driving lights here

Using fog lights

Front fog lights are designed to better illuminate the road in fog, snowfall, rainstorms or dust clouds. They can be recognised by the narrow pattern of light emitted.

Road Rule 217 states that drivers must not use front or rear fog lights unless driving in fog or other hazardous weather conditions that cause reduced visibility.

Fog lights cannot be accidentally switched on. They must be switched on separate from the main and dipped beam head lights.

Using driving lights

Driving lights are designed to illuminate the road over a long distance. They are the same as the high beam (main beam) head light and emit the same lighting pattern.

Road Rule 218 states that drivers must not use the high-beam headlights when driving:

* less than 200 metres behind a vehicle travelling in the same direction

* less than 200 metres from an oncoming vehicle.

Driving lights cannot be accidentally switched on. They can only be switched on and off with the high beam head lights.
