Question do all touring models have fog lights?

hey guys, just wondering if all 1993 touring editions have fog lights. i am currently looking at a 1993 (made in early 92) rx7 touring and i am pretty sure that it did not have foglights, even though it had sunroof, bose, cruise, etc...i am not completley sure of the lack of folgiths, but i am pretty certain.


thanks,
karl

Carfax won't tell you ****. It's only good for checking the status of the title and mileage reports. It will NOT tell you accident history. Just trying to save you some heartache. Take the car to someone who does body work before you buy it. They should be able to tell you the truth.

A lot of people (maybe me? Thinking about it...) remove the foglights because they are essentially only for looks and they block airflow into the radiator, so keep that in mind...

Check for the SWITCH on the center counsel ALL TOURING models had Fogs BASE cars could have CRUISE Leather and SUNROOF added and would look like a Touring but would NOT have the Fog Lt Switch.

Does anyone else find their factory fogs pretty useless? Or are mine just aligned wrong?

I heard that the stock fogs are pretty useless and they're just for cosmetics.. i just bought some aftermarket fogs instead..

if you could turn them on with out the head lights up im sure you could use them for something, day time running lights maybe? im sure you could re-wire them but I doubt it would be worth it.
