are these the projector style lights??  It could be a forward aimed turn signal or a daytime running light.... just a few guesses.

The inside yellow light is a fog light. I still dont have mine wired up, I plan on doing that next weekend. Are you talking about the turn signals in the bumper? If you are just use the ones from the 240 they bolt right in and have the correct plug. Then you can tie the turn signals on the side into the wires so that they come on. I will have to go home tonight and let you know which 2 to tie into though.

Yeah thats the foglight.  Personally I like the non projector sqare lights.  Thats what I have on my silvia.  I think they work better than the projector lights.

anyone care to post pictures of projectors vs (matt?)-fresnel (forget what they're called) lens S13 headlights? or at least direct me to a page?

And yes, the yellow center lights are fog lights. I had the pleasure of being followed by some lucky SOB in East LA who had a S13 front like that.
At first I thought it was one of those silly old integras w/ the center foggies, but when it pulled up closer at a stop, I realized it was an S13...  **SWOOOOOON**
