so.... anyone melted their grill with fog lights?

of all the things i leave on in my truck when i go in my house tonight... my 2 kc 150watts behind my grill... talk about totally spaced out...

battery is dead now...BUT no grill warpage or anything... it's about 36 degrees and the kc's have been on over an hour with no movement.... and still no melting...

my report for the night....

i'm gonna go bash my head against the steering wheel...

just curious...why not wire them to a source that's only on with the key, so you can't forget them on?
I had a set of fogs on a car years ago, and wired them up that way after I left them on 1 too many times.

usually when i hunt with my one eyed coondog, i park up and alot of times i need them on when i'm not in my truck?

honestly it's because i like knowing that when i need them, they are there no matter what...

what's sad is that it was night time and i left them on...and these things AREN'T dull..

Talk about irony....I left my dual Hella 2020's w/ 100w H3's on when I went into wally-world today...

My grille is metal, so I highly doubt any damage was done
