As far as I remember that didn't happen in all countries. I remember seeing them when going on vacation to France (Corsica) in the mid 80s, but never at home.

No, it was only France, where they were mandatory.

In other EU countries they were however allowed up to a certain date (in Italy they are accepted only for vehicles built before 1993, and in the same date France made them not mandatory).

The yellow is not "a" yellow it is a very specific one, called "Selective Yellow":
