Fog lights are cool. DRL's are fine, as long as you could turn them off when you park. The IS is ghey because you can't turn off the fog lights ever when the car is on. That is why people get them turned off period.

Mine is always on because it lights up most of the part that is not covered by the headlights. Plus I have HID =-D

You can turn off foglighs whenever you want..its on the same switch as your headlights, just on the inner side..you can turn up for on and turn down for off.

I dont understand why not put a simple button to turn on the fogs.

I used to love crusing around at night with just my JDM Yellow fogs on at night..

Most of my driving's done in the city streets, so I usually leave the fog lights off.

But if I'm on the freeway in the night, I try to remind myself to turn them on.

Otherwise, there's no reason to waste bulbs and blind opposing traffic.

I leave mine off. I think it looks ugly with it on.

I don't understand your post. If you turn them on at night then you might blind opposing traffic, which you seem to agree is not a nice thing to do. There's very little chance of blinding opposing traffic during the day.
