How do you flash your lights?
« on: May 26, 2018, 10:04:04 pm »
I wanted to let someone know it was OK to move over in front of me.  Normally, I flick my high beams, but that doesn't work on the Fiero.  How do you do this?

Fiero doesn't have the flash-to-pass feature so you have to do a full low to high to low beam flash. 
There are three kinds of men:

1.    The ones that learn by reading.
2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

In those occasions, I've just turned the lights on just long enough to get them to come up or almost all the way up, then turned them off.

Maybe parking lights would work.

I never know if they pay attention, but I flash my driving lights (aux lights) that I have mounted. Sometimes they are but most times they aren't paying attention.

My lights have some lumens.  If I flash the high beams from behind you, you WILL pay attention.  The high beams may be aimed a bit too high.  Since ogre isn't on here, he won't mention about all the terrible things I'm doing.
