I was out with the Mother-in-law the other day, going to pick up the motorbike from the bike shop, and yes she was on sidelights as always.
I pointed out that I would be riding a motorcycle in the rain, it's like driving a car without wipers, and breathing on the windscreen from 2 inches without any way of demisting and that I wouldn't stand a chance of seeing poorly lit vehicles. Light-bulb moment - the headlights were not for her to see with, but so that others could see her.

There is a place in hell reserved for motorists who ride around with rear fog lights on when it is drizzling at night. Tangiers Orange - gone, missing her

some years ago, one member put bulbs into the rear lamp cluster. Whilst these are not DRLs, they do give a red lamp to both side and rear. Wired up to ignition +ve feed from the boot fuse box.[/quote]

Yeah, that was Largered. Not seen him on here for around 2 years now. I hope he's alright. Knew him from the old Freelander Owners Club, back in the day.

Colin, if you're still around, please let us know. You've been quiet for far too long, mate.
