It looks dumb  :huh: I have been driving for a few years now and never thought, I needed more light when turning that corner, it was too dark there!?

Seen the fog light feature on a Golf the other day and it just looked odd.

+1 looks like your driving with your fogs on with a bulb out. :huh:

Thanks, look a right goon sitting in the car park taking 15 second exposures with a camera on a tripod on the passenger seat.

Saw this for the first time today on a Fiat.
Prevously I'd have just thought typical Italian quality problem and the electrics were faulty, but after reading this post I now realise it's a feature.

Still looks daft though.

If you see it fade on and then fade off it looks not bad. But I've been opposite a few Mercs at traffic lights with this feature and it just looks silly.
