IIRC the other side is a reflector. Check you handbook about bulb replacement.

Mine has only 1 fog on the drivers side, so you ain't got a bulb out.

Bad design and/or cost-cutting.

Only one is required, and it goes on the driver's side.

Thumbs up

IIRC, some manufacturers prefer only one as they say, quite correctly, IMHO, that two foglights looks too much like brake lights.
My '98 has one.

Nice one ....saves me checking to see if the bulbs gone, coz it's not there in the 1st place

Strange how you notice just before your MOT's due. Me aswell
