>Yes. It was a legal requirement in France until the late 80's / early
90's... As I child I got used to see them in the 504 Peugeot's >(which I
loved at the time (still do..a little bit!!)) around in Spain...
>I found out about it as I was curious of why some cars had yellow lenses
and some didnt...

Here, bulbs with yellow light is available and used by some,as they are said
to give a better light in winter and especially when its snowing(less
reflections is a part of it)
