I thought it was just some British crossover of language that they kept referring to these lights as "Fog" lights. Now it seems these really are just fog lights... True?
Dual fog lamp pairs, high and low? Both going on at the same time? Was that standard in Euro?
Though the lamps are H3's, it looks like they're powered off the low beam circuit, and only uses tiny 18g wires for power, and has 18g for ground shared with the parking lamp. I'm sure that's sufficient for H3's at lower current, but not large enough for "driving lights. These lights in the Cossie use 14g., and power is taken off the hi-beams (IIRC).
Not sure I like/need the idea of simultaneous hi-and-low fog lights, after being able to use real driving lights. But, it would make wiring simpler just tapping into the existing under-bumper fog light wiring. On the other hand, it's not that much work to swap the internal wiring to the "fog" light from 18g. to 14g., and then build a dedicated relayed circuit to convert this to "driving lights."
But, this brings up the question whether the design of these reflectors even make for decent driving lights. Light pattern is necessarily different. Yeah, they look similar to the Cossie reflectors, but not the same.
What have you guys done? If you converted to driving lights, was it worth the effort? And no, if I do convert it over, I won't be going to 100W H3's.
