As with every other forum on the net Ive ever been on, 1 out of 4 reply's are made by people who obviously have no business interacting with society at all. Headlight covers, you know, the smoke ones that allow light thru but not alot, you know, the ones that have been on cars and trucks since the dawn of man. Is there anyway to get notified in your email when someone gives an idiotic reply to a post so I dont even waste my time by checking it?

Ok, i'll give this a shot.. I probably wouldn't spend much money on auxiliry lights if all you're looking for is to supplement your headlights. I bought a small set of fog lights (like the slim PIAAs).. they're 55watts and only cost about $15. Got em at a local hardware store.. Anyway, I mounted them to the bottom of my bumper, and they work pretty much as additions to the headlights. wish I had pictures, but haven't taken any yet. If you're interested, I can take some..

Wow, my averages were way off, 3 out 4 posts are idiotic. At least Russell was nice enough to answer the friggin question, its simple, the headlight covers reduce headlight strength, therefore I need some driving lights to supplement them. I was skeptical about the $15 ones but I'd also hate to pay some of the prices for the PIAA's. I appreciate the offer for pics but dont worry about the trouble, I more or less wanted to find out what brands and types some people had tried, I figured the slims would be about the only option on my truck, I've done some more searching and found some Hella's on ebay that are slim driving lights and they are running $39 with free shipping. Out of curiousity where did you buy the fogs you got?

This makes it 4 out of 5.
I do not have fogs..I just have my regular lights and I see fine. Quit being a Honda and take off the smokes lense covers.
If you just wanted to know what kind of fogs/driving lights people have then post a question just like that..or even create a poll.
also, if dipshiit answers are a waist of bandwidth ( nice word by the way) then why do you keep responding to them?

Key phrase being that you dont have fogs, so why in the hell did you even reply, thats my whole point. People reply to a post they obviously have nothing to add to except to try and bash or humiliate someone, whats the point, are you bored. And I love how my trucks a honda now because I have blackouts. I keep responding because I dont like being accused of being an asshole. I put a simple post out there and all i got (except from one guy) were asshole replies, yet I'm the one accused of being the asshole. Pretty funny stuff.

Alright, I setup a poll, if thats what It'll take to end this and actually get an answer. I used a ford ranger board for years and enjoyed it and was hoping to do the same here now that I own a yota, but this is definitely not the way I wanted the first week to go.
