honda city fog lamp

Why is there only 1 rear fog lamp on my car?

Did you know that the car with the cheapest car with fog lamps is the Kia Picanto 1.2 EX? When the car was launched earlier this year, the new generation joined the ranks of having at least 1 fog lamp on it’s rear end. While it seems like fog lamps are common placed items, it’s actually not something that all cars have installed as regulations have yet make it a “must-have” yet. So now you know that one of the selling points in the Picanto is that the car has 1 fog lamp that replaces the second

How and when to use fog lamps - without being annoying

Oh it’s one of those topics again. Written many times, shared even more, but somehow people still get it muddled. Honestly it’s feeling like the Proton X50’s ‘what’s the price?’ question (no, the price isn’t out yet, here’s why) because people still bang on about it with unfounded theories. And what’s the issue this time? Oh yeah, fog lamps. Bad rep because of misuse Right, contrary to conventional ricer beliefs fog lamps are actually - would you believe it? - practical!

My reverse light, note singular, is working fine!

Let’s paint a scenario, you reverse your spanking new car into a parking lot, hopped out of your car and a good Samaritan came up to inform you that you’re missing a reverse light and strongly advice you to have it changed for safety reasons. FYI, there’s nothing wrong with your car. Because many cars are now equipped with 1 reverse light while the slot for the other light has been replaced with a rear fog lamp. Contrary to popular arguments online (just Google it, it’s quite a heated debate), c
