so much crap in this thread, WTF????
Driving lights CAN BE ON with your normal lights! Ever seen a new GT mustang? Or maybe a truck that has them too?
Removing that shield won't do as much as you think, I have mine removed because I was having issues with my head lights not wanting to stay on, so sometimes I would have to drive with ONLY the fog lamps. It does have some glare, but not as bad as you'd think (only about as bad as normal headlights)
I will more than likely be either replacing the fog lamps (they're chipped to hell from road crap, and the chroming is pitted inside), or makeing a new blinder for them as I'm going with HID fog lamps. Also, E-code Hella headlight housings are worth every damn PENNY. I highly recommend them...
