This means that the "head lights" placed on the inside of the frontal treatment are actually the turn signal/parking lights. They are slightly smaller than the headlights, you may notice. I know this is late but it is a key spotting feature. Not all 48 states allowed quad headlights until 1958. The Lancer name was used for hard top and convertible models. -- Last edit: 2007-10-07 05:22:34
