Pretty sure they come on when you have headlights on and indicate?

I think the globe you're refering to is the T20 with a dual function when you put your indicator on it shines brighter, Supposed to shine up road more which ever way you turn

you would be right there plasnart but as i said they are in clear lenses where indicators are normally coloured lenses.there is side indicators in gaurd just behind wheel but this is front of gaurd.as threedogs said suppose to shine brighter around corners

Sort of like a mini hi/lo beam comes on with parkers and gets brighter with indicator on.

they would be clear/white as they are pointing forward? like white forward and red pointing to the rear of the car but then is also orange like a typical indicator from the side view

you wouldn’t have any issues if the white light was on with the parks but if that lit up the indicator also as its possibly a dual filament then that would be an issue

Its just a white parker the illuminates brighter when you flick the indicator, the white one doesn't blink
it just glows brighter to illuminate which ever way you turn

Guys, he ha a GQ, it's not a parker light. It overcomes on when you indicate and have your main lights on..... If I can find a pic on my phone I'll post it..... Either that of have a look at mine in the members rides

Yep, 100% agree.

They are Cornering Lamps and the one on the appropriate side is designed to come on steady at night when the vehicle lights are on and the left or right indicator is selected.

Nothing caught in your brakes? I had a few stones wedged in between the rotor cover and caliper (thanks to my "I'll go if you go" attitude), and it was making a god awful squeal.
