I was driving my car and my wife was behind me in her GL, and man those corner illuminating lights look akward. They are really useless, unless you live out in the country, or your street has absolutely no lights, and even then I think we can survive.
Anyhow, do you guys know how to keep them steady? I thought I heard someone say, turn the dial all the way to the right, however, that does not seem to do the trick ..

You can give it one click for the front fogs to turn on. Or I remember reading on this forum that it can be disabled through the MFD.

Oh yeah, rear fog lights...last night my husband was following me home & it was foggy. I turned on my fog lights (2 clicks on the knob!) and when I exited the freeway, the fog had lifted, so I turned them off. We got home & he said, "You have an electrical problem" and proceeded to tell me about how goofy the left rear tail light looked. I tried to explain to him about the rear fog lamp, but he thought I was nuts. I had to show it to him in the owners manual plus find the thread on this forum that talked about it.
...for some reason I didn't think into it, at first thought, had in my mind that the first click was rear and second was for front

+1 I live in the country (Pennsyltucky!) and find the feature useful though I believe it serves no purpose in the city. The nuisance I encountered was a police officer pulling me over thinking a fog light was broken. Took a few minutes of explaining to settle things.
