I'll second this as far as the use of the foglights go. I use mine all the
time also. Twice they have saved me from hitting a deer because I could
see it running along the shoulder of the road. When my girlfriend was
driving my Dak one night and I was driving her car, I passed her on the
road I live on. Yes the fog lights are bright, but don't stare into the
light and they aren't bad.
