Phil L Posted September 7, 2004 Share Posted September 7, 2004 Hi all, One of my front fog lamps has become extremely loose. The bolt that holds it in place does not fall out completely and so fortunately the lamp has not fallen off but I have no idea as how to access the bolt to tighten it. Is this an easy thing to access and fix or do i need to pay through my nose and take it to a garage ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott_Mac Posted September 7, 2004 Share Posted September 7, 2004 Its a driving light.. but thats irrelevant. You should be able to reach through under the wheel arch liner.... but i'm not promising anything. Someone on here had to replace one the other day and managed it i think, so it can't be too tricky.. have a quick browse around the threads.

Mark H Posted September 7, 2004 Share Posted September 7, 2004 Yup driving lights not fog lights. Yesterday I was following a car with its fog light blazing red at me, couldnt see a damn thing. Irony is that his number plate ended in the letters FOG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAMES Posted September 9, 2004 Share Posted September 9, 2004 Sorry for being thick but whats the difference between a driving light and a fog light? And when are you gonna use your 'driving lights' any other time than when your driving? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daves2111s Posted September 9, 2004 Share Posted September 9, 2004 Your driving lights come on only when your main beam is activated so assisting your normal night driving.(+ they look cool when you flash your lights ) Fog lights come on independantly so that you can aim their beam very low without dipped or main beam on that way you don't get so much scatter reflection back into your eyes off the fog. So there you are then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thub Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 Driving lights have their beams set to be long and thin, whereas fog lights have short and wide beams. They're not just the same light used in different ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott_Mac Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 So ladies the question is which do you prefer... Long and thin or short and wide? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
