Hi Chris,
The clock takes 2 BA7s bulb/LED, 1.2 or 1.4W according to Haynes, the same bulb also fits in the cigar lighter. You can buy white ones as there is a green plastic diffuser that provides the colour.
For a fog light switch bulb, you need a 1.2W wedge base bulb that is 4.8mm wide and 18mm long. I think that might be a 286 bulb, but I'm not 100% sure so you'll have to do some research into sizes before buying.
:goodluck:

Andrew.
