Okay, this is getting a little too whiney and I'm about to be an @$$.


1. Mind your own d@mn business.

2. CCW= I'm well armed too so follow me home because of my lights. I'll ventillate you like there's no tomorow while my wife's handing me a spare mag and calling the cops on the cell phone. I have more ammo rolling around my floor boards than most gunowners own period.

3. Foglights fill in the 'gap' between one's hood and where the halo of normal beams are on the road thereby reducing the stress on the drivers eyes. I love my foglights.

4. It may be fine and accepted in your country/society to willingly force otheres behaviour to bend to a certain minorities will, but hre in America most of us still value our freedom. Quit trying to ba a GD fog light ****.

5. When bright lights from oncomming drivers bother me I do not stare directly at them. Find another reference point (outside line on a road for instance) to watch until offending car has passed. Try closing the eye closest to the bright, offending light. You'll be amazed how easy it is to get my said perckerhead without your blood pressure being raised.

That was quite impressive. Now take a moment and look at how stupid it sounds. You're gonna shoot somebody because they don't like your foglights?

No I don't ever want to shoot anyone. Read the first page of this thread and you'll see mention of someone following me home bacause my lights are too bright and use a .357 magnum on me. My post was in response to that.

Thanks for the compliment though. You should see the look on my non shooting, non gunowning coworkers faces when they open a door and ammo rolls out. Like I said I'm not out to harm anyone or thing, but throwing a tantrum over light buls on the internet is ridiculous.

Aslo, I have noticed that most times that healights/foglights bother me it's not from another truck. It's from some little old car that someoen thinks is a race car. You know, $400 car, $2,000 pf paint, $200 worth of stickers, fart can exhaust and improperly aligned head or foglights...sometimes both.


I stick by what I said about closing the eye closest to the bright light(s) and or looking to the ine on the outside of the road vice the center line until the light is passed/passes. Try it sometime.

selecting your next vehicles lighting

Thanks for the comments take a peek at the Canadian DRL inventors site on the link below

I believe the reason for the lower brillance in daytime was for a possible savings in fuel and to make the glare at a lower level
more acceptable level

http://www.pacificinsight.com/

I would not want the problem you describe suggest you take the vehicle back to the dealer and tell them that the oncoming traffic is being offened

The manual operated DRL1 does not have this problem
and extinguishes with the park brake applied

THis version operate with in the low beam lamp operations,

have a nice day
BJ

I closed that link as soon as I saw "GM supplier of the year".


I feel dirty now, thanks.
