The fog helped me figure out something tonight...

[YAR1S]

I was driving along in really bad light with a lot of fog...

well anyways.
I never knew that you could have both high-beams and fogs on at the same time.....

well.... I figured it out tonight.

You pull the lever for the lights back as if you are about to flash someone or temporarily put on high beams.... and there is a half way point that allows you to have both fogs and high-beams on at the same time....

not very practical... but still neat to know.
:w00t:

I don't have fog lights.....do they really make a difference? Like, is the road more visiable with them on?

[YAR1S]

they make it easier to see immediately in front... and they help a lot for seeing just to the right and left....

but honestly they dont make much of a difference.... perhaps in REALLY heavy fog... but i kept flicking them on a off but the difference wasnt very spectacular.... for me they are just for looks now...

[YAR1S]

perhaps with a brighter bulb they would be worth it?

[captainm27]

You know, they've always seemed less brighter to me than the regular lights. Are they adjustable like the headlights are? Can you tilt them up and down and left and right?

[YAR1S]

I know , I know.... they are useless... but I know a lot of people on here have been saying you cant have both... and I believed it.. perhaps Im the last one to clue into this.... haha.

Thanks for the tip........i am from here in Greensboro, too......08 Black 3 door Liftback.... i live in the downtown area ..... Did you buy your Yaris from Rice Toyota ?

[Treyz]

lol .. almost every car does that!

As for your fogs, are they factory? MI have the aftermarket ones hooked up practically to the factory locations (wiring wise) and bought the relay for the fogs so they light up on the dash (a prehack thread). They stay on with the high beams.

[ddongbap]

I think you just found the transition position between the relays.

[YAR1S]

probbly.


and no... I didnt get it from Rice Toyota... I bought it on craigslist from a guy in charlotte.

I havnt seen any black LB's knocking around greensboro....
how long ago did you buy it?

[DESIGNZIT]

i bought it about 4-5 months ago...... i am in the downtown area about every day or so going down Elm street in the evenings and i live about 3 blocks from McCoul's on the other side of the railroad trestle in the new townhomes on MLK Drive ......Hope to run into you sometime or just honk......LOL......Drew.
