So flash us SonicStanGirl.

I really don't this the fog lights are that bright. I run them a lot becaus the show up a broader view. I think like it was said before, people see four lights and think you have the hi beams on.

It may be fun to flash, but check your state laws... it may be a question of being legal in your area to run both sets as running lights (without fog/mist)... you may want to make sure the car you flash doesn't carry a badge. Just a thought... :-)

That is one more reason I switched to center foglights.

Is the other reason to heat up the engine compartment?

That kept me from considering the center fogs......

In Illinois, and I bet most states, it's technically illegal to flash your lights. Although the only time I've heard of this being enforced is a trucker warning another trucker about s speed trap.

I flash them back, It get's annoying after a while, especially when its every car that passes you on the road. Oh well, sucks for them, I didn't design my car, and I feel I can drive it however I like fogs "blinding" them or not. What about the A-holes with 984125712741 watt hyper whites on their $85,000 Mercedes ?[sm=bounceybounce.gif]

I drive with both on, day and night. imho it's extra visability. If they can't see me coming now they are blind as a bat.
I never got flashed though... Maybe people in Texas aren't **** about that sort of stuff...

Try the amber colored RockBlockers. Makes your fog lamps quite amber - like real fog lamps. Less flashing and still gives off a good light pattern.
