Fog lights without low beams ?

As I said, I dont remember but some were down there in the left footwell under the dash????
I will have a look next week end when I see the car again, Im about 150 km from it at the moment.

Is this a feature of the later cars post '86? My car can have fogs/sidelights without lifting the headlamps.

Yes - the UK dim-dip legislation appeared in 1987 and required headlamps to come on if sidelights were also on when the engine was started. It was quashed by the EU in 1988 as it contravened the single market type approval rules, but the dim-dip units continued to be fitted for a while into the 1990s.

I promised to have a look on my car this week end but I simply forgot all about it and earlier today my car was sold to a new owner so now its impossible for me to have that look, sorry.....
