defrost switch is where the Euro fog light switch is.

I have a fog light switch, just no fog lights.  Damned previous owner.  By
turning that on will I activate that middle brake light?  By middle I mean
the one that is blocked off over here.

night, you can turn on your left (or right-whichever side you're parked on)
blinker after the car is off and the taillight and the 'dim'(no 'parking'
lights on Euro spec) will go on so people see your car on a dark street.
Just thought I'd pass on some 'Gee whiz' info...

I finally got around to trying this.  Nothing happened (except my wife
laughed at me for expecting a light to come on).  Should I have the middle
brake light installed first?  Or is this just a Euro option.
