    Default Installed DEPO headlights, fogs don't work now...

    So I installed the DEPO smiley headlights on my 95 e34, and when I was done, the fogs stopped working. Anyone know how this could have happened?

    And while I'm on the subject, I hear there's some sort of protective sticker or something that you should put on DEPO headlights as a precaution. Is this true?

    Thanks guys.

    its a 3M clear laminate to protect them from rocks and such, abt 3mm think, you can get em from bavauto.

    I have no idea why the fogs would go out, the wiring area is completely different and not interconnected.

    maybe your LKM is borked

    Highbeam bulbs must be working for the fogs to work.

    Bingo. Make sure you have bulbs in the high beam circuit.
