I'm losing the plot here a bit and hoped someone could help

My wife has a 2012 smax, sipped headlights and sidelights stopped working.
Initially I thought it was something electrical, but changed the dipped bulbs and hey presto, worked again.

Have gone now to look for sidelight bulbs to switch, tha manual says they are in with the fog lights but I cant find them!

Am I being a complete idiot or can someone assist?

Video shows side light and fog together but is an older car. I see yours have daytime running lights (led bar) so I'm under the impression that takes over side light duties?

Its a funny one, dont ever remember checking before but daylight running lights on all the time,
even when light off, the dim significantly when switch to side lights but nothing else there to compensate.

I dont drive it that often so cant really recall what cam eon before

Starting to think I'm losing the plot a bit!
