I'm looking at getting some genuine fog/driving lights from Holden, and I'm wondering if anyone can give me a few pics of the view from the drivers seat? I need to make sure its worth the 300 or so bucks... haha

Cheers.

you notice them more in the later(newer) models.. ie. in my vt you can only just notice the difference when they are on... when we had the vy the difference was more noticable, but still not a massive difference (if you were to accidently turn them off while you were driving, you wouldnt be able to tell)

theyre more for the aesthetics

Have them on my Caprice. They provide some side fill at night at best with the high beams. I have used them once or twice only on country trips at night. $300? I wouldnt bother. Have never needed them for fog and as above, it is apparently illegal (In WA anyway) to use them unless its foggy etc.

Thanks guys. Will probably knock it down the list for a few months at least...

TVR161, yeah I did consider that. Would look pretty sick, but what's the light spread like? Probably wouldn't matter much hahaha

In Qld it is now a $150 fine (and I think demerits apply as well now...)

Besides Foggies are useless when fog isn't around and on wet rainy days they just add glare...
