    just picked up my 2014 pip.

    i was disappointed that there were no foglights for the pip.
    but did notice the foglight/turn signal housed a drl led when the headlights are off.

    maybe its just me, but anyone know if you're able to have the drl/led/fog on at the same time with the headlights?

    i dont really want to go through the hassle of installing actual foglights. trying to keep the car stock until a few years down the road, as i like to modify my vehicles.

    i prefer the look of having foglights on at night even though they dont ouput enough light to help you see.

    The Advanced PiP does have fog lights, along with the automatic headlights. The Base doesn't. Both have daylight running lights.

    In my country it is illegal to have DRL full power at night, must be reduced power reduced illumination.

    I wholeheartedly agree that anything designed to be bright enough to be seen in full sunlight is too bright to be used unattenuated at night.
