Xenons ON, during the day?

[Why2]

Just curious as to how many of you drive during the day with you're Xenons on?
A few of my mates do, and I see a lot of cars these days doing it too.

It depends for me, sometimes I do sometimes I don't. But I'm not one for getting in the car and immediately putting them on.


Ftw or not?

 

[Aluco]

I do, dunno why. it's more a habit because I used to drive at night a lot. Helps with visibility if you have a dark (Grey or something) car on dreary days too. And on the motorway.


It's not like they annoy/dazzle anyone during the day.

 

[sam55]

I wouldn't use mine in broad daylight, but if it's grey or raining I turn them on. Not for safety or anything, just because they're awesome

 

[blambert]

I tend to stick them on, no idea why. I guess I know they are aligned to not blind anyone and it makes my car look more like an AUDI innit.

 

[CJGREEN]

I usually swtich them on out of habit but they look cool anyways

This.

 

[ipodsandguns]

When I had them, If they turned them self on I had them on, If they turned off I had them off.

 

[Martin_172]

never driven the car with them off, its the only way to roll

+1

Im exactly the same!
Whats the point in broad daylight!
I know Volvo and some other cars have them always on!

 

[Leeshez]

Yes i do, 9 out of 10 times when i drive. People seem to pull out in front of me. Blind fools. New cars have lights on like volvos do.

 

[MicKPM]

That's becuase all new cars seem to be coming out with daytime run lamps or the stupid LED lamps that all the chavs seem to be retro-fitting to make their Corsa look more Audi... maybe its a new EU wanker type approval directive?

I've been asked to enable this feature on a few cars recently which can be done with ease, mainly on Laguna II's and Megane II's by local taxi drivers. I agree totally with putting your lights on if its dull and/or visibility is poor but do you really need the car to make this decision for you on a normal day?

 

[jonny_rs]

I will put my xenons on most times even if it is sunny because I know they are visable from further away.

As Leeshez said, people don't seem to risk pulling out in front of you

 

[DanielJames]

I don't use my headlights unless it's dark.

I'm not a bellend though.

LOL

 

[Munson]

I roll with mine on 247365 but it's not a xenon thing, because I have done it with all my cars.

The reason is that it if it makes the difference between someone not seeing me, and seeing me, then it may make the difference between me not breathing, and breathing. On that basis, I'm in.

My xenons do look f**king epic though. Plus it's cool as f**k when the washers pop out of the bumper.

When I go out on my road bike I wear Hi Vis clothing which makes me stand out a fair bit... doesn't stop people pulling out on me and saying "Sorry, didn't see you"

 

[joshclio999]

im sorry but IMO, if someone is going to pull out on you in broad daylight it doesnt matter if your lights are on or not!?

Exactly this.

The chances of someone at a junction seeing you are increased a million percent when you have you headlights on. I don't want someone careering into the side of me so i've always done it.

Was that a serious comment or are you that retarded?

 

[ashbrown]

Depends what mood im in but fogs when its not foggy...... epic fail!

 

[Munson]

No need to be sorry, but that's a bit of a silly statement to make. They're going to pull out on me whether they see me or not?

 

[Christopher]

I have them on 24/7. Always have.

I've done it with all my cars.

50% for safety, 50% because it looks mint.

Why do you think DRL's have come in?

 

[Munson]

And 50% because having xenons makes you superior. 150% lights.

Why do you think DRL's have come in?

cos they look fuckin sick bruv

 

[Gally]

I'm still perplexed!

 

[JCC]

Mine are on everytime I drive the car regardless of conditions.

Xenon blaze makes the bitches gaze IIRC.

 

[Tunst]

I sometimes do and sometimes dont, but usually i roll with one xenon as the other is tempromental. Need a new ballast i think.

 

[Munson]

They see me rollin etc.

 

[Munson]

I'm still perplexed!

Why do you feel the need to question people's beliefs?

 

[Christopher]

Lights are sh*t. Sh*t lights.

M3.

 

[DrR]

If you can't see the advantages of driving round with lights on in the day you're a fuckwitt.

May I please bring your attention to the address in your url window at the top of your screen. Thank you.

 

[Gally]

Flol @ beliefs!

I beliefs the lights are not needed during the day due to teh cars pulling outz anyway!

 

[Munson]

They have a a right to there believes!

 

[Gally]

AFPMSL!

I arent not sure this is PC.

 

[Knuckles]

My mate puts his on when he goes for fast road drives... But I don't like when people drive round with them on 24/7... Stupid Audi drivers

 

[Munson]

Why don't you like it? Are they too visible for you?

 

[Revels]

I don't even put them on at night.

 

[Cookson]

I don't even put them on at night.

You more of a sides and fogs man?

 

[Italian_Job]

I don't use my headlights unless it's dark.

I'm not a bellend though.

im with this guy

 

[Munson]

I don't use them at night either. Only during the day. I mean if someone's going to pull out on you during the night, they're gonna do it anyway whether or not you have your lights on. Right?
