| Totally agree with you colinrr - it's a shame that you can't adapt the fog lights to driving lights, make much more sense in my opinion. Having said that, perhaps it can be done? |

| Simont, Thanks very much for your kind comment. It's not a difficult operation to fit it, just a little bit painstaking. If you like, I'd be happy to give you a blow by blow account of how to go about ... |

| As djwhyte says "1490t" as a search will bring up a lot of detail. As a comparison, I installed my 1490T for an all up cost of about £270, including the cost of getting the mask cut. In the ... |

| When my OE Goodyear Wranglers wore out at 50000kms (31000miles) I changed to Michelin Latitude TourHP. These are noticeably quieter than the Goodyears and, according to my tyre shop, will last longer. ... |

| Thanks for that djwhyte; the unit is not held to the mask - I put a 'back stop' in the cubby hole box and the 1490 is sandwiched between that and the mask. This eliminates any potential problem of the ... |
