Also my PRC drls have been going strong... at least 2.5 years. 75k miles
if you don't mind can you post some night picture or nighttime driving video with and without foglights ...
just curious to see how the 2017 lights are at night..... thanks very much.....
I have the 2017 CX-5 Sport AWD ... so I don't have the fancy DRL or LED fogs ...
IMO the LED fogs while functional are more for looks IMO for the CX-5.
I live in San Francisco (Fog city ) and when FOG gets so bad that
I can't see 20 feet down the road then LED fogs won't do you much good...
Just slow down...

Just add auxiliary lights if possible in your state.I have the 2017 CX-5 Sport AWD ... so I don't have the fancy DRL or LED fogs ...

Not to mention the algorithms involve in the camera processing.One thing to keep in mind is that most videos of illumination really suck for actually conveying the amount of illumination present. Here is an example. I was using a 500 lumen light that lit up the world, including those 75-100m targets you can't even begin to see in the video. Here, it looks like you probably think a mini mag-light looks like, lol!
Unrelated video showcasing illumination sucking in videos:
My friend has a WRX, the headlights were absolutely worthless. He had to upgrade for safety reasons, in his words. He rode in my CX5 with just the stock halogen? lights and felt it was MUCH brighter.
I'm unimpressed with both the Xeons on my last cx-5, and the led headlights on my present car, cut off is too low IMO, restricting night driving on low beam to 45mph, no problem with the main beams. My Xeons in the 2009 Xtrail were very impressive.
I'm unsure about the led spots I have, they don't impress to be honest on the odd times I've used them.
I agree, thats is why I am looking for effective fog lights to add to cover that dead cut off point.
Unfortunately for me, I have a light cataract on my left eye so I'll be adding focused beam LED lights. I intend to plug it to the lighter socket to avoid warranty issues.
