hahaha, i just test drove one and am picking up mine on monday.

dealer told me how. turn the lights on so turn the dial clockwise to turn on the headlights, then pull the dial back towards you 1 click. 2 clicks back turns on the rear fog light.

i will be joining all of you on monday. congrats!!!

The description above was accurate.

I would advise you to use your fog lamps only when called for by the weather conditions. Simply for the sake of weird drivers on the road like myself who doesn't like looking at fog lamps

Also, if you leave the lamps on auto, when you do slow cornering, since you have P2, the fog lamps will light your way around the turn.

I dunno. It looks weird to have only one fog turn on. Then it looks like I have a burnt foglight. (When I saw another C class pass by on a turn it looked like one fog burnt out). So I leave my fogs on now in the city but off on the hwy.

Yeah ur probably right. I was just venting my frustration at fog lights People probably think I have them burned out too. Embarrassing, but I don't think about it too often.

I leave fogs on in city and off on freeways. People really have no reason to complain about someone having the fogs on. It doesn't impact anyone's driving and I know it doesn't blind the person in front of me any more than headlights.
