Wide range of fog lights. Order with number plate

Front and rear fog lights

The front fog lights are located in the front bumper, at the bottom. Despite the fact that front fog lamps are not mandatory, you can have them fitted for better visibility and sight. Fog lights at the front ensure that you have a better view in dense fog, snowfall or heavy rain. There is often only one rear fog lamp at the rear. This is to prevent confusion with the brake light. The rear fog lamp is often located on the right rear of the vehicle. You are allowed to turn them on while driving, But don’t keep switching them off and on again, as this may confuse other drivers. Just as any other part on your car, fog lamps can break and therefore need be replaced.

To make sure that you buy the right fog lights for your car, it is best to enter your number plate in the green bar (top). After filling this in, specific fog lamps for your car are displayed. In addition to fog lamps, Winparts also offers styling fog lamps. With styling fog lights you can give your car a more intense and unique look. Styling lamps are always sold per set.

When to use fog lights?

Using fog lights at the right time should aid safe driving but using them at the wrong time could mean you are breaking the law and endangering other drivers. The Road Vehicles Lighting Regulations of 1989 prohibits the use of front and rear fog lights to dazzle other drivers when visibility is not reduced or when the vehicle is parked. Regulations dictate that it’s mandatory to use headlights when visibility is seriously reduced, generally when you cannot see for more than 100 meters (328 feet). Next to headlights in such a situation, you also may use front and/or rear fog lights. These must be switched off when visibility improves. It can be a little difficult to judge 100 meters, so think along the lines of the length of a football pitch.

Although mainly for fog, they also serve purpose in other poor visibility conditions such as snow and heavy rain. Mind you, using fog lights in drizzle and rain is not allowed. In the UK it is furthermore a legal requirement to have at least one rear fog light on your vehicle, which must be located on the vehicle centre line or to the off-side (driver’s side).
