Twin foglights idea.

[lh_4827]

I've been looking for some 110mm driving lights but can't find any, so would it be possible to turn the reflectors round in some foglights to change the beam pattern?

Regarding the legality of this, I found this on scoobynet.


1. There's no such thing as a driving lamp, it's specified as a main beam headlight.

2. There are no requirements for maximum, or minimum height, (that surprised me).

3. They must be fitted in pairs on a car.

4. They must NOT be fitted closer to the outer edge of the car than the dip beam lights.

5. They must NOT be fitted further than 400 mm from the outer edge of the vehicle, (that's measured to the outer edge of the lit area of the lamp).

6. They must extinguish , as a pair, or deflect, as a pair, when dip beam is selected.

7. There must be a warning light fitted in the vehicle that tells you when they are illuminated, (the main beam warning light will do if they are linked).


As far as I can tell, this would mean that you would have to wire them up as already discussed, on the main beam circuit and also on a switch so they can be left off.
