in my first bmw, i used to keep the fogs on all the time, but i found out that they kinda burn out too fast. after that car, i just kept the fogs off on the cars and used them when necessary. in doing so kept the bulbs lasting for a really long time. i think i have gotten lazy, not that it's a big deal or something to replace the fog bulbs.
haha it gotta be another bmw thing man i don't see why the fogs would burn out too easy often compared to headlights

and well, here in cali we hardly have fogs, so it's not an issue, hehe

yep, could be. that was an issue with my 1990 bmw 325is. after replacing the fogs twice (more often than i did with my headlights), i stopped using them all the time.

yep, so now i got a lexus.

I just sanded the lenses for the is fogs that are going into my tc. You have to wet sand really well up to 2000 grit and then use a dremel to polish the glass to perfection. Light output is better than the stock yellow lense.
