Now I understand your post, Mud Pie! I thought you were stating your opinion on fog lights while, instead, you were summarizing the thread.
I don't remember this thread from the first (three) time(s) through. Why I missed it, i don't know.
One thing that has changed since the earlier days: with different software, the fog lights will no longer be on when high beams are used. I had my fog circuit activated (without the fogs themselves) for other reasons and found out about this little tidbit.
