I noticed that when you turn on the foglights on our cars that it pull out once but then you can pull it out again. But when you pull it all the way out I see no change in any of the lighting. Anyone know what pulling it all the way out does.

 

Euro only rear fog light.

 

Thanks. I've always wondered about that.

 

Yeah me too...I just noticed this about 1 week ago. Thought mine was broke.

 

Volvos sold in the US still have this feature. Its funny because most volvo owners don't even know when they have flicked the switch. So if you ever see a volvo driving around with its lights on and it looks like its back left tail light seems too bright, the Euro bad weather light has been hit unknowingly.

 

Is there a kit that we can get here in the US to install so we could use that switch?

 

You'd have to buy the entire lighting switch/fuse box assembly. I tore mine apart thinking I could get it wired up like that so that when it was all the way out, the fogs would stay on even when the high beams were being used but the actual metal strips inside the switch the it would make contact with are missing and there is nothing for the fuses to plug into. Maybe if you found a totaled one over from overseas that was still LHD, it would work but I do know that they have to have a light aiming adjustment switch that may or may not be part of the lighting switch/fuse housing so it may or may not work but if you find more than one, please let me know as I'm game for tearing my dash apart again.

 

Ahh see at least Im not the only one whom has the same idea thanks RCOMPART

 

You can probably get a switch out of a wrecked SLK. I believe that they have the rear fogs (at least the SLK32 that I saw at a Mercedes dealership a couple of weeks ago did). It had a red circle below the green one for the front fogs.
