Anyone got a pic of the front fog lights??

Looking at my headlights,it looks like a fog light bulb in there,but no button on the dash for them?
Are they standard on all cally's or just certain models?

Thanks
Dave

i asked this a while ago, supposedly they were an optional upgrade with the 8v's after a certain year, as mine doesn't have them either.

yes they were an option on the 8valves, the only 8valve's which got them as standard were the se models

SE 8v models didn't get foglights.

So where abouts are they mounted on the cally's that do have them?
On the top of my headlights there is a small cover that unclips and lifts up over,inside is a bulb that to me looks like a fog light bulb?

That's the main beam bulb, fog light bulb is inside the main compartment.

Yes, front fogs were never available even as an option on any 8v SEs, but they were standard on all other models (including 8v) up to 1993 model year.

After this, it goes:

8v non-SE models: Optional
8v SE models: Not available
All other models: Standard

Would love to retrofit front fogs on my SE4 - but not sure if need to fit whole new headlamp units. I've got a dummy switch which has replaced the nasty blanking panel in the dash, but I seem to recall you need a relay as well.
