What to Do If a Base Model Car Doesn't Have Fog Lights?
1 Answers
You can directly install fog lights. Adding fog lights to a car is considered a safety feature, so it is not illegal to install fog lights on a base model car. Since light can increase visibility distance, especially the strong light penetration of yellow anti-fog lights, they can improve visibility for the driver and other traffic participants in low-visibility conditions such as fog, where the driver's line of sight is limited. This allows oncoming vehicles and pedestrians to spot each other from a greater distance. Therefore, installing fog lights on a base model car is legal and beneficial for safety. Precautions for installing fog lights: 1. Professional Installation: Fog lights must be installed by professional technicians at a certified auto repair shop. Do not attempt to install them yourself, as incorrect wiring can lead to other issues. 2. Choosing Fog Lights: The purpose of installing fog lights is to enhance safety, not for aesthetic appeal. Some car owners install blue front fog lights, which may result in being stopped by traffic police. 3. Modification Registration: After installing fog lights, the vehicle's appearance must be promptly registered. Failure to do so may cause discrepancies during the annual inspection when the vehicle doesn't match the photo on record. Registering the modification can help avoid unnecessary complications.
