Default 2010 Fiesta Sedan Rear Lights Query

Hi people, New member here with a question regarding my 2010 LX WT Fiesta Sedan. I am trying to figure out what the 2 white triangular lights are in the pictures. I assumed that they are reverse lights but do not light up at all.

There is no information on the light in the manual that i received with the car.

Any help will be much appreciated.

I have a later model but can't recall what the lights look like (it's my missus' car).

I'd be guessing but I reckon they're the rear-facing fog lights that you'd have if you had fog lights fitted. I don't think the LX came with these standard so they'd be blank in your car.

My Focus has one in the rear quarter that lights up when the fog lights are on...but it's red.

Late edit- I see you've got a fog light so it's got me stuffed. Looking at the workshop manual leaves me none the wiser.

Is there a globein there?
Hard to tell from the pics.
Maybe they are just reflectors?

Actually my missus' is a 2011 but it's still a WT (TDCi Sedan).

I'm going out for a look.

Ok it's empty. There is a indent where a hole for a bulb could be but it's skinned over with the same chrome-plated plastic as the rest of the 'reflector'.

I'm guessing reverse lights for those jurisdictions where they don't like one on one side

Thankyou so much for checking this out for me. I was thinking the same but when i went to check if there was a globe i ended up breaking multiple clips for the boot interior so i chickened out in looking further.

Once again thanks a lot for this info. I can now relax and stop thinking something is wrong
