Was told it's illegal to have normal lights on AND foggies at the same time too, one or the other. makes sense since they are for different purposes. I liked my extra cornering vision at night though :( Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/27486-fog-lights-driving-lights/page/28/#findComment-844753 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're sh!t outta luck in an FG then cos the foggies don't turn on unless you've at least got the parkers on, so you can't actually have foggies on their own.

I thought the use of those light were reserved for P platers who have borrowed daddy's SV6.

Holden's seem to be the worst...fog lights on them suckers are like beacons.I totally agree with you Ace on the night-time rural driving though, that extra bit of light certainly helps for wildlife spotting.
