Driving in Blizzard with Fog Lights

[CO-rayman]

I have been concerned this would be an issue ive always had amber fogs and in sittuations like that would be running park lights and fogs. I have the yellow Twraps as well but now im thinking I will be carrying some masking tape as well incase I need to block off the light bars and the top of the headlight "seems easier than pulling fuses"

Thanks for the suggestion! It would be an easy way/quick way to provide a temporary solution for those of us that don't necessarily encounter thick fog all the time.

Masking tape sounds ok for fog, but what could be used in snow (that would stick)?

Orange masking tape seems to stick better than the standard stuff https://www.homedepot.com/p/3M-Scot...y-Duty-Grade-Masking-Tape-2020-36AP/206827411

I haven't used it for this purpose but I expect to have to dry the bar pretty well before applying. This stuff is a lot stronger than the blue or green masking tape in my experience.

Unfortunately I can't... since we don't manufacture the PPF ourselves (for now), we are limited to what color options are available, and since Rivian developed their own proprietary colors, nothing on the market would match that. I might do a blackout though, if more people request it.

I've ordered the yellow to try out and will try the masking tape suggestion elsewhere in the thread on the lightbar. I thought about ordering your dark smoke tint PPF but didn't want to buy the set including the headlights...

The yellow fogs should do well... I recently got to do some smokey photography to demonstrate them, but yet to upload it on my store... here are some photos (driver side - yellow, passenger side - natural).

I do expect the yellow to help - but further up thread there was discussion around how to minimize light above the fog lights. One person went so far as to pull the fuse on the headlights. Would be nice if Rivian had a dedicated fog light only mode.

I wonder if the super-bright LED headlights would cause more of a problem in snow+fog than the light bar.

I am picturing basically strapping a tarp over the light bar, possibly extending over the top half of the headlights, securing it inside the frunk and to the grill or tow hooks.
