Yet more foglight questions 850 1996

I am thinking about having the Hella Micro DE foglights people on the board have been raving about. I'm going to take it to my trusted auto stereo guy, who said he would have no problem wiring it into an original equipment foglight switch (which I need to buy). But here are my questions:

1) Like everyone else I have the idiot light for the rear single foglight on my dash display. For those people who have OE foglights, is there a *second* idiot light on the dash, or does the same idiot light that I have come on?

2) My stereo installer told me that he can probably supply the relay(s) I need for this install and not have to buy the Volvo relays and such. If I do that, will I be giving up the idiot light option on the dash?

In other words, I *want* an OE idiot light to come on when I turn on my Hellas. Does I need to do anything special to ensure this? Any and all advice is greatly appreciated.
