Default Functionality of the cornering lights

Hi, I'm wondering about how the cornering lights work in the C4:
  • Do they only work below 25 MPH like in modern cars? (I mean by default, regardless of laws and regulations)
  • Are they activated only when the turning signals are on or also when you do a sharp turn?
  • Do both the front and the rear cornering lights turn on at the same time? Do the rear ones only turn on when you go in reverse? And do the rear ones require having a turning signal on, or does switching to reverse activate them?
I'm asking mostly about the 1993 model but I assume they worked the same in all C4 Corvettes.

Thanks!

Power source is the TAIL fuse.

Are you sure?
