I call them French Headlights because at one time France used yellow lights instead of the normal *clear?* lights.

Cop Bait!
You'll make some traffic cops day!
Yellow headlights don't really do anything for fog or driving its just a look. If you are trying to improve visibility just hang some good driving lights under the bumper. Next time you see my car check out the simple brackets I made for the driving lights. I have 2 quartz halogen 1000w driving lights that I got off of Ebay for around $40.00. On a dark road they really fill in where the headlights leave off.

Inventing you own language just confuses the folks who have been using those terms for many years

This is a frenched headlight

Just in case... These are frenched tailights

If we applied your definition...Frenching the taillights would make them directionals

You're trying very hard to be unique... to stand out. So hard in fact, you can't see the forest because of the trees.

You drive a classic VW.... unless you're at a club meet you're incredibly unique. Finish the black decklid & hood. There's not another one around.  (love
