Default Does your Foglight Switch Light up?

I don't know if my Subaru is playing mind tricks on me, but I swore the OEM foglight switch on my 2003 WRX lit up when the headlights came on. That little greed indicator light still turns on when I press the button to the on position, but isn't that little foglight logo supposed to light up at night with the rest of the dash lights?

So when they`re on, only that little green LED at the top of the switch lights up? Or also that little foglight picture icon thing as well?

Just confirmed on my 03 wrx sedan. The foglight icon(not the green strip) is on any time the lights are selected to the position 1 or 2 and dims with the rest of the dash lights. This is separate from the operation of the green strip.
There is an entry in the FAQ section of Scooby Mods showing the 2 bulbs and part numbers for same.
