The fog around my area in the Cotswolds is all through the winter and there are some particularly bad areas I have to drive through (when nowhere else seems to be foggy!) So I'm grateful for the front fogs (and the rear)
Euro Car Parts.... Thank you

Paradox, I got a set of the Nightbreakers from the same supplier as yours (took a while though).
They have definitely improved the amount of light thrown out to the ditch each side - I'm very impressed by that; I no longer feel compelled to put the fogs on now, but I have mixed feelings about them when on main beam.
On full beam they aren't quite as "white" as I was expecting - more greyish but they do seem to project further than the bulbs that I removed so I would say there is an overall improvement that was worth the money.
My main gripe with the Jimny headlight projected 'pattern' is that it seems to have a shadow that goes right across the road - its noticeable when you adjust the beams up/down.
Out of all the cars I've owned, the SAAB had the best headlamps and before that, many years ago, my humble Citroen 2CV (I remember thinking if I ever build a kit-car - the 2CV lamps would be what I would choose!)
