they look like yellow lenses, in which case I would guess fogs  plain lenses suggest some potency tho. |

I'd say spots despite the yellow (french??) but light one up and shine it at something, that will tell you for sure!  |

To get a standard A40 this low, you'd have to dig a hole to put it in |

Unfortunately I don't have them yet, they are shipping to me as I speak. They are indeed yellow lenses and I am informed that these are french and have been rescued off and old 1960's VW Sommatorother, so may well be spots. Should have them either tomorrow or saturday so I shall post another pic then |

they're cibie airports, available as drive or fog, colour is option on both.
my oscars are clear but unpatterned lense give a very short and wide fiel of illumination, which is what you need for fog lamps. I'll stick with my guess of fog lamps. I'm no expert tho!

Found the current plastic versions:  As mine don't have the thick pattern like the one on the right I will take a guess at them being the yellow versions of the driving lamps. |

On the Lucas lamps the heavily ribbed lens is the fog light and the plain lens is the spot light so I'd assume its the same with these.
