Another Jazz

Picked up another Jazz today. 2009 Jazz Sport, high km but very tidy - drives like a new car. Will put some tints and window visors on first and go from there..

Looks good. Jealous of steering wheel controls for radio and the HVAC controls.

Yes, I was surprised to see the cruise control and radio controls on the steering wheel. Have found a factory Bluetooth kit for it, thinking of having it.

What sort of controls does yours have for the vAC etc, different to this?

Here are a couple of pics. I added the faux wood trim. On the wheel I just have the Cruise Controls. No radio ones. You also have the totally red hazard button.

Black3sr: Where did you get the "yellow" fog lights? OEM with yellow film or real yellow lenses with halogen lamps behind?

I initially used a Head Light Armor film and now a JDM yellow film with the OEM fog and OEM Halogen and in both cases the film blisters / discolors in the center of the lens (heat). I always have the fogs on when the headlights are on but don't do too much night driving. Right now it's 10 deg F (-12 deg C) in Pennsylvania, so car never sees extreme heat.

OK just wondering what others have done. Non-yellow foglights don't make sense to me. THX

I got my film from Kevin K on here. I run my fogs all the time with headlights. Have had no problem. Again I do not do much night driving. Hate to say this but not enjoying night driving at my age(75)

Got you beat. I'm 102.

Could you post a link for Kevin K or list where I can inquire about the yellow film you are using. Mine is more discolored even during a POLAR VORTEX.

On YouTube, I did see someone paint fogs yellow using a "stain glass" paint from Krylon. Have to scuff up the lenses first, so I don't want to do that unless necessary.
