indicators near right turn signal (on cluster)

OK... I am in the process of customizing my cluster, and have it apart...

These are on the OEM gauge faces....

Every indicator makes sense to me... except for 2. I am thinking they are for EDM or JDM Evos... but unclear...

I tried to take a picture of mine... but because it's black, it doesn't really come up. So I found a pic of a white faced cluster to make it more visible..

Next to the right turn signal indicator, there are two indicators that do not seem to be used for US clusters...

The lower is amber, and looks like a bulb with light shining down. I am thinking that this is for EDM rear fog lights.

The other is green and appears to be two bulbs shining outwards... I have no idea what this is.



Anyone have a for sure answer?

In my JDM the lower one is used to indicate the fog lights are on and the upper one indicates the headlights are turned on, both illuminate green.

So, you're saying that the JDM doesn't have the fog light indicator on the left side? In looking at the JDM clusters on the web, the high beam and the fog light indicators are on the left side, same as US market.

ok... so in searching on other sites where there are same clusters for different countries..

It seems that in some markets, you need to have a low beam headlight on indicator... as you do with the JDM cars. so that explains the green two bulbs showing outwards.

but are you sure the lower one is for your fogs? In all the EDM cars I have been in, the amber foglight showing to the right is always for a rear fog, when the blue/green foglight showing to the left is for front fog lights.

My front fog light is indicated by the left symbol, under the hi beam.

I think the one on the right indicator is for the rear fog light, which I don't have.

Alright you made me go out in the cold and check. My apologies, the light under the high beam light is for the front fogs. I wasn't able to illuminate the one under the low beam light, I don't have a rear fog light on my car so that is probably my best guess.

OK, so the final answer is:

Left side

Blue bulb facing the left is high beams on. (all markets)
Green bulb facing left (and down) is front fog lights (all markets)

Right side
Green bulbs facing outwards is headlight on indicator (select markets)
Amber bulb facing right and down is rear fog light (Euro markets)

Thank you very much!
