they are not designed for day time just to pick out kerbs when visibility is bad.
In the UK strictly speaking they should only be on in visibility of 100m or less. they can also cause glare if roads are wet so not appreciated by other drivers. suggest leave as they are.... |

i love the hate for such a simple question- mostly from people not in the states.. not sure why... when literally hundreds of cars do this with their DRLs lol so i dont know about these laws you speak of. I agree id want to be able to at least have them in some auto mode. Theyre fog lights, theyre not blinding anyone.

What factory “fog” lights are really only good for, and used for, is to let other drivers on the road see you better in foggy conditions. Sometimes this can be confused with some cars that have DRL’s on the lower part of the bumper, making it appear like they’re fog lights that are constantly turned on. |

Oh don’t you worry I agree with those sentiments too, it’s a sad time indeed, hence why I distract myself with such a materialistic thing like a car...but automotively we have some weird laws that mean nothing like our forced side markers- which I doubt I’ll hear anyone hear bring up breaking the law about when people color match those.

No coding is necessary to enable fogs with DRL's. Coupling to DRL or low beams disables ability to toggle them on/off. There are just some features I will not code.

My 2019 non m sport don't even have fog light for whatever reason...
In any case I don't think it's a good idea to use fog light as DLR as others were saying, though to be fair To the OP i have not seen actually how blinding or not blinding the g30 fog lights are... I just don't see the need for secondary DLR |
