Default Question for canadian-spec GS users about headlights

Hey guys I have a candian spec GS. The inner high beams work at 50% power for DRL's.

When my headlights are on, the inners turn off.

I cannot turn the fogs on without having the headlights on. If the Hi-beams go on, the fogs are disabled.

My question is, are my inners supposed to be illuminated when the headlights are on? I see a lot of american cars on this forum seem to be able to do that, and my friend's JDM JZS161 can do it.

I realize the american cars have a 194 bulb for DRL's in the inners, do CDN cars have it too? I never really noticed one in there when i changed my high beam bulbs. Maybe I have them and they're just burned out?

I can't really check right now since my car is stored away out of town until winter is over, and my manual is in it.

Yes, that's the way it is. However, i do have 194's in the inners as city lights that come on with the headlight. DRL's are the highs on less power.
