England 2004 Range Rover Vogue Td6 Giverny Green

I suspect the fitment shown on the RR in the picture may not conform to the legal requirements for the fitting of DRL's. The maximum distance they may be fitted is 450mm from the outer edge of the car which on a RR is almost exactly where the fog lights are.
I would check with the suppliers if you decide to order.
They would look better if they were circular.

To me i wouldn't bother Mick.

If you have a warranty and get them retrofitted by anyone other than LR then they could within their rights throw their teddy out of the basket and decline any future claim on it...

And its just another thing to go wrong, not worth the hassle. just leave the light switch on auto or run with dipped beams on all the time like bikers do Wink to make yourself more visible Smile

Stan,
Can you not just turn the fogs on or do the lights have to be on first?
Also what LEDs you use? Geoff

It is not legal to drive with your fog lights on in the UK unless visibility is severly reduced by fog.

You could just drive round with your dipped headlights on 56 TDV8 Vogue SE

Wayne Wover is my thoughts Smile

Never liked DRL's and could never see why we don't employ the same methods as other euro countries that require lights during the day all year round.... a £5 relay in a certain position in the car puts the lights on when the engine is running... simples Smile

@geoff...when i switch the ignition on the fogs/leds come on ..they stay on when the sidelights come on but go off when the headlights are on.

leds are h7 18 smd's...


@andy...you're correct , its not a requirement to have front fogs in the uk.. ... - .- -.
