fair enough but this isnt a DIY guide, should be posted in general or cosmetic modification.

I got pulled over about 6 months ago for having my fog lights on in my tC....after having them on for 6 years. Just a heads up, grumpy cops CAN pull you over for having them on apparently.

FRS?

What does this mean for an FRS?
Complete fog light kit. Please be advised that, due to a design change, the BRZ Fog Lamps, part number H4510CA000, are only applicable to vehicles beginning with VIN D_602075 and higher.

The switch to turn on the fog lights is on the same stick as the headlights. Are you telling me this kit has a separate switch?

Basically its the same as having your hi beams on I guess. It might differ from state to state, this was in Oregon BTW.

Yeah, pretty sure legally you can only operate your fogs when it's actually foggy, in most places in Canada/USA.

out here in the boones, elk, deer etc, at night the roads are ...deserted in the desert ....fogs+ pencils+ readjusted primary beams, all part of the survival game. daily.

oncoming traffic is often on a roadway a 1/8 mile away, up on the 'next shelf' as roadways here follow land contours mostly
