Great info flowerfred. Nice pictures too.. My 330 had both fogs connected so maybe my new car will have that too. I hope so, it looks much better then one foglight burning.

Btw. have I read correctly that since we have the fogs those lights aren't used for the BFD???

Now that's settled, but I have just one more question. FF, was that your Swiss Army wife holding the brake pedal while you took the photos?

Indeed JDN.


Actually, that wasn't as easy as it seems. I had to take the front seat out and make her sit on the back seat, as her legs are so long.

I guess that would be a handy feature to have in a Swiss Army wife.

For what it's worth, Audi, Saab and Porsche install rear fog lights in some or all of their US-spec models.

My Dad's 97 Audi A4 has the rear fog. Acutally nice when driving in very snowy conditions. Generally you can't see the car in front of you during these snow storms.

That's what I think and its what I saw when I tested BFD. Hopefully FF could supply us with a photo with them on.

There must be some photos on the internet showing the BFD in action for the E60. Can anyone find them?
