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. Dave Burden decvax!decwrl!rhea!cheers!burden 603-881-2559 DEC Nashua, NH "That's right, there's a whole dead cat in every bar of Dead Cat Soap."
