Raised this topic because I'm fairly intrigued by the subject!
On the up! they appear as only available on the High Up and the black and white. Otherwise it is part of the winter pack for £300.00
On many other makes of car they are an option on their own at a similar sort of cost.
My question is how often are they used?
In my experience probably once or twice a year for a short period, probably not much different from many other drivers. Even then I think I've only used them because they were there, not because it aided my seeing or being seen.
So, what is the point of them apart from being a very expensive aesthetical addition?
Would it have been better for VW to have fitted them to all models and used them as DRL's instead of being incorporated in the headlamp unit?
Waffled on long enough! All views very welcome!
