There is the Kia SUV or whatever where the loving turn signals are down low on the rear bumper edit: This. Who the gently caress thought putting the turn signals down that low and away from the traditional light cluster was a smart idea? The white things are the turn signals that blink amber.

BlackMK4 posted:There is the Kia SUV or whatever where the loving turn signals are down low on the rear bumper Some years of the Discovery II had the reverse lights down low and the turn signals up high, and others had it the other way round. I think they were trying to copy the look of the Volvo 850 wagon and didn't do a great job of it in that case (the Disco I had more sensible tail light placement)

I gather it made more sense in the JDM car, with the red e-brake indicator taking up one side. It's always nice when the owner has replaced the bulbs with leds. Assholes.

DropShadow posted:I've only noticed GM vehicles doing this, are there other brands that do? It's super dumb. Thankfully in some newer GM vehicles you can switch that poo poo off. I switched it off on the Volt and would be good with a software update that permanently locks it out, because it’s a poo poo-tier idea. “Hey, let’s take the universal signal for ‘watch out, I’m driving with extremely limited visibility’ and use it for our courtesy lights in parking lots!”

Does it come with rope and a harness so you can safely climb up to the engine bay?

The cherry on top is the awkward Z71 badge. Someone forgot to design a spot for it, so they just wedged it into a gap between the holes of their connect 4 game board.

Quick and dirty, but theres so much extra loving truck. I got rid of the extra grill and lowered it a little to vastly increase front sight line and engine bay access.

Concur. Good God that's ugly, and I *hate* signals above the headlights, and the fact that they have to do so, because they made it so bloody tall. um excuse me posted:Quick and dirty, but theres so much extra loving truck.

Powershift posted:Powershift will fix it!  quote:For real though And that a lot more. I think you basically just moved the front bumper up, right? I've noticed that most of the current trucks have a super long face because they have to keep the bumper height low for crash safety (for other cars...) but still made the trucks ridiculously tall.
