James,
the so-called "city lights" in the American speak are the regular 5w 
parking lights built into the headlight itself. In our cars they are in 
hte High beam reflector.

According to the Euro code the front parking lights are always white. 
The turn signals are always orange, front or rear. They don't have this 
confusing noncence that we have to cope with here in the States. With 
the Orange dim/Orange bright in the front, and the Orange parking lights 
which makes the Orange turn signals indistinguishable.

The same holds true for the rear lamps, unlike the confusing American 
all-red rear lamps. Europe has done away with this crap back in the 1970s.
