Thumbs up Types of foglights for S5's.

Hey, I'm curious about what types of fog we can get for our S5 besides the OEM one.

Pics would be great and describe where you get them.

thanks

I like the stock foglights. Mine don't work though...they haven't since I bought the car. I don't know if they are broken, or if I'm just a dumbass and don't know where the switch is. I tried all the switches on the console, am I missing something?

Help a brotha out

It's right next to the security light below the shifter. I like the OEMs, They fit the car and really complete the light output

i flipped the switch...nothing happened. Great....something else I have to fix. You're not an FC owner if you're not frustrated, am I right?

Bulbs may be bad, maybe bad wiring, or just maybe a bad switch. Should be too hard

meh, probably not. I'm not stressing it, I don't need them too badly. Other than I live in Washington and we get tons of fog in the winter especially at 5 in the morning when I have to get up and drive to work 5 days a week. Speaking of which I should probably catch some Z's...I'll get 5 hours of sleep tonight if I'm lucky

I thought that this would be cool. It would turn the fogs on to with the lamps down.http://aaroncake.net/rx-7/lights.htm

scuse me i was kinda drunk when i posted that.

but no really.
those foglights fill out the s5 bumper holes nicely. maybe it doesnt show up to much in that picture so ill post another.

but im a fan of yellow fogs for some reason. maybe thats dumb, but hey they work.
i need to work on the brackets i made for them but thats simple stuff.




sorry about the crooked fog, like i said, brackets arent perfect.

now maybe im wrong but it is too my belief that rising sun flag is offensive to some japanese like the swaztika is to the germans. That sun is not the national flag anymore think that went away in the late 40S... (yay its the bitch about the hood thread) i just dont like pissing people off so i wouldnt drive with it on my car.m EDIT i wiki'd that **** the rising sun is the military flag of japan still in use by the navy. it is offensive to the countries that were occupied by japan. im done going back into my corner.
