I get people flashing me everytime I drive with them on. I put some silverstar bulbs in mine and they are brighter than my headlights now so I guess people think I'm running with the highbeams on.

They do help light up the road though.

I wasn't aware you're supposed to drive without your fogs on. I'm eventually getting another set (I had the pony package on my old ride), and you can bet I'll have them on whenever I'm driving at night.

Nope don't use mine and even though they sit down low I doubt they would be all that effective combatting fog. If you are talking rally car fog lights, they are effective.

Yeah fogs always on with the headlights. It drastically helps visibility. People flash me, but I flash back since they are too ****ing retarded to notice the fog lights aren't as bright as the head lights. I've seen other GT's coming at me at night with all 4 on and it's not bright in my eyes at all.

People just see 4 lights and think "WHA!? THAT ******* IS BRIGHT LIGHTING ME!" ..then they stare directly into my 4 lights, instead of just looking at the road.

**** those people. My reaction time for flashing back has gotten ridiculously good.

I use them sometimes when I'm cruising around. I can see a lot better on dark roads with them on.... Plus it's classic GT....

Never had anyone mistake them for high beams.

I generally run with them on, and get the occasional idiot who thinks "4 lights, must have brights on". Pony package, little fog lights set inboard - you would think they would figure it out. So quick flash of the brights to let them know.

I've gotten the occasional flash from the idiot during the night when I have all 4 on, otherwise during the day I drive with my fogs on, but not my headlights. I just like the way it looks
