Headlamp Bulbs

Can anybody clarify...

95-97 LS low beams are H4 and are dual filament (high and lows in H4)??

Is the foglamp or driving lamp between the headlamp glass and corner light H3?

Thanks!!

Here is where my confusion is...

According to sylvania.com:

9003/HB2/H4 is my lowbeam bulbs.

9005 is my highbeam bulbs.

In essence, the 95-97 has two highbeam bulbs on each side. The 9005 highbeam bulb along with the highbeam filament of the 9003/H4 bulb.

On a car with H4 lamp only, either

1) the lows cut off and highs turn on

2) lows remain on and highs also turn on.

Most dual bulb system cars, 9006 low and 9005 highs...same result from above 1) and 2).

What happens on an LS when the highbeams are turned on?

Do all 3 lights stay on?? low filament H4, high filament H4 and 9005 highbeams??

LOW/HIGH = 9003/H4

HIGH = 9005

FOG = 9006

Fogs only work with lows.

When highs are switched on the H4's brighten and the 9005 turns on, the 9006 turns off.

It's illegal in the US to use Highs and Fogs at the same time (don't ask me why...) That's why they do it.
