1984 Subaru GL Station wagon; what are the front bumper side lights?

Thanks carfreak85. I am referring to the side lamps in the front bumper. I am aware of the turn signals in the the front of the front bumper but the lamps on the sides of the front bumper are the ones in question and it doesn't seem to make much sense for extra markers so close to existing markers, does it? I wish it was easy just to find another operable Soobi to compare to but they are way too rare here.

Ahhh yes.  The side-mounted bumper lamps are also marker lamps.  NHTSA regulations say something like "You must be able to see the lamps from a rear 3/4 view of the front of the car."

 

The marker lamps next to the headlamps don't really shine in that direction, hence the side-mounted bumper marker lamps.
