One click to the right turns on your parking lights which also turns on the angel eyes. And yes you can drive like that, but your parking lights will be on as well. I wouldn't recommend driving at night w/o your headlights.

Well, you can use the Angel Eyes together with foglights; some countries will approve that has a substitue for daylight running lights. On the LCi cars however, the Angel Eyes will work as daylight running lights.

Tarek, those things are the Angel Eyes, generally used only as parking lights. I do sometimes drive with them and the fron foglamps on - makes the car look suitably mean. Angel-I-Bright is a product that you can buy which makes the angel eyes shine brighter, but I would still not recommend driving with only them on, except maybe in morning/evening light.
