Some say the cracks start at the mounting points.I don't know if covers are the answer..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I have Territory Fog Light covers. <{POST_SNAPBACK}>If you turned them off during sunny days you wouldn't have that problem! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I agree with Falchoon completly.But worse than those people with the front fogs on all the time, are the idiots that are too ignorant to know that the rears also come on at the same time in certain european cars, BMW etc. It isn't illegal to have the fronts on but it is illegal to have rears on (Vic).

You think by having extra lights on, you'll incur a larger electricty bill ... and we all know how "wise" you are with $$$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your best bet is to get some 3M thick clear film over the foggies. They'll never crack then.72,000kms on my car, and my front end is stone blasted, still got the same driving lights I had when I put them in 72,000kms ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the rear, your not talking about those single over lumient red lenses at the back that drive you crazy in clear whether are you?
