W140 sedan yellow fog lights

I saw this ad in eBay -

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=2479487626&category=6336&sspagename=WDVW

and noticed that this 94 S420 has yellow fog lights. My 95 has white fog lights. Are these Euro headlights? Were yellow fog lights an option?

Thanks,

1995 - 1999 has different headlight design.....

US/Canadian Spec 1992 - 1994 W140s do have yellow foglights.... Actually, it's yellow filters that make fogs look/shine yellow....

Here are the differences...

As you can see, early ones have fog in the inside of headlight housing near grill, while low/high beam are H4(twin filement bulbs)

Later ones, Low and High are seperate bulbs(H7 I believe), and Fog(H1 or H3?) is just right under neath low-beam
