1)  Fog Lights.  They do work and are very helpful in the snow since everything
	is usually white and reflects the light better.  As for the color of 
	the lense, I would suggest clear for two reasons.  First, any color
	other than clear will theoretically absorb some of the light as it
	passes through the lense, or at least more than the clear lense will.
	The second and more logical reason for clear lenses is that your
	headlights are clear, so why mix different color lights?  It will look
	a lot better from the driver's seat to have the road lit up in one
	color instead of two.  Also, fog lights only work properly when aimed
	correctly.  Mount them as low as possible (and practical) and you might
	even want to aim them off to the sides a bit to light up the edges
	of the road better.

2)  Cruise Control.  Sorry, no help.

3)  Storing a '79 Firebird.  Ditto.
