Weird....

does the foglight switch on the dash turn on the fogs when the rest of the lights are off?

have you any way of having the other lights on without the foglights?

My mothers car failed the nct for the same thing, must be annoying not being able to use the parking lights without draining the battery?

I mean, parking lights, you know, the ones you sometimes leave on when you leave the car so other cars can see yours, small 5 watt bulbs front and back

in your case, wouldn't the foglights also come on?
The FTO has a tiny battery, meaning that the battery wont last pi$$ing time till it's flat.

I accidentally left my HIDs on when going into the shop and the battery would be dead. Only takes 2 minutes.
Although on the ballasts for them it says they are 25,000 volts or some mad reason :lol: .
Going to upgrade the battery and terminals in the next week or so.

Might as well as this now... What size battery will fully fit battery tray?

I'd been meaning to put a HID video together for a while, so this thread was a good excuse.
Here's what you can expect with the HIDs and LED fogs/parks fitted.
