Wbrian63 hit the nail on the head.

Maybe you misunderstood my "silly question." I wanted to know how to make my '83 C126's fog lights work like the ones on my Euro 300TD, my 560SEL, my 300D and my R350. I said nothing about snow or fog, I just wanted more light at night on dark roads, see the last line of my original post. Maybe there arent any DEER in Alburquerque but there sure are a ton of them around here that like to jump out in front of cars.

75Sv1 provided a useful link- thanks, I'll look into that, or something similar. All I'm looking to gain is the way they were intended to function before conforming to the DOT of the 1980's.

I'm curious to know what states it's illegal in? How were they allowed then and now to sell those models there if the function is illegal? Like before mentioned, ever since 86 as far as I know, this function has been available.
