DRL'S

[SC03OTT]

OEM looks fine. Although there are some suspect designs out there. Mine are just strip of light at the bottom of the cluster.

Else, just roll with your lights on.

I have proper Phillips ones on my car, and they look pretty good, draw a lot less power than running the fogs all the time, kinda makes it look like the clio 4 as well... they have saved me a few times where before I put them on I felt invisible on the roads... so in my opinion... well worth it, im not a die hard purist and don't take my car to car shows etc... its a tool to me, and on south African roads the more visible you are the better chances you have of a taxi deciding not to be in the same spot you are in at the same time...

1)running the fogs all the time,

2)kinda makes it look like the clio 4 as well

1) Why were you running fogs all the time? You know they are for when it's foggy, not some sort of baller-signal
EDIT: Ah! SA may have wildly different road rules, so fair dos, my bad. But here if someone's driving along with their fogs in in anything less than actual fog, its not exactly smiled upon.

2) No, no it doesnt

Not to the point of being dazzled by them!

Why have DRLs on the front but not the rear? The number of brainless morons I've seen running just front DRLs but no rear lights at night is getting a bit silly.

Volvo had this sorted perfectly donkeys years ago.

I have never been dazzeled by any drl and i drive all alot most days

And my last 2 volvos have had drls and volvo stopped the always on headlights years ago

I don't have fogs on my car, that was the other option... drls or fogs... I chose the drls... I know lots of people that drive with their fogs on, nothing wrong with being visible, as long as what ever lights you run are not pointing at the sky and blinding people :down:

I find the dazzling problem is more due to oversized school-run faux-x-4s with their xenons on, 2 inches off of my bumper, whilst the driver has a chat with her phone in between glugs of coffee and shouting for Tarquin to be a good boy in the back.

In fairness, that could just be because my eye-line is parallel to their beams

My issue with DRLs is purely cosmetic.

As for Audi and their LED headlamps, I just want to put bricks through them. Hideous things. ESPECIALLY the ones that act like fairy lights
