On Euro spec tail lights (which are different than the US ones), there
is a place for the rear foglights. Additionally the back plane that
attaches to the tail lights is different as is the wiring. My TriStar
has that type of tail light. The lighting pattern is different than the
US, though at first glance they look the same.

Yes, on my Tristar I have functional rear foglights (warning light
really). Of course the factory FRONT fogs had busted lenses (I also had
to remove those anyway due to the wonderful Virginia safety inspection
rules).
