I had to look up what a parking light is. It sounds totally unnecessary to me, but I'd say that about a lot of things put in cars after the 90s.
Probably not important in this case since it's just a light for parking, but lights for cars cost more due to having to meet exacting DOT standards/testing. I wouldn't do this with a brake light or real headlight.
- dhosek 5y agoParking lights are a lot older than the 90s. In Riverside, IL, they have "historical" streetlights that inadequately illuminate the streets (or at least did in the 70s). As a result, it was required if you were parking on the street in Riverside after dark that you left your parking lights on.
- jimmaswell 5y agoApparently the light setting I always skip past is parking lights and I never knew. I always found the headlights/reverse lamps adequate in the dark though.
- fho 5y ago> a lot of things put in cars after the 90s True ... we just moved on from a car build in 1999 to one build in 2011 ... got the "non-extra" version which was half the price. We still got an AC and bluetooth connectivity. What we did not get was a multimedia center, a panorama roof, seat heaters and fancy front lights. I can see that you quickly get used to that ... but tbh I think that most of these are just to justify a higher price because the actual service, getting you from A to B, has not changed in 30 years.
