    aftermarket driving lights

    has anyone seen or installed any aftermarket driving lights?
    I was told you can't install the OEM lights, as they are all hardwired in, is this correct?

    regards

    do I understand correctly that your front foglights only come on together with rear fog light?
    would prefer an independent switch.

    Yes that's the way I set it up so I didn't have to buy an extra Euro switch (headlight switch) and get it all coded etc. There's nothing to stop you doing that though (getting a full Euro switch with independent switching). In NZ the rear fog (and switch) is standard so that's why I did it my way.

    As per the other thread, you could always get an auto electrician to help.

    Unfortunately I've heard they've gone out of business. May I suggest you join http://www.mytiguan.com/ as they're based in the UK and somebody there will probably be able to help. This forum is great for us "antipodeans" but they have better access to suppliers etc.

    Cheers
