Amber lights in R1S front wheel wells?

[tpberding]

I saw an R1S yesterday with what looked like amber lights in the front wheel wells. After-market or a factory add that I just haven't noticed before?

Like those stupid trucks with underbody lighting? Definitely aftermarket.

For a second I thought someone had resurrected yet another zombie thread as there was another on the exact same question. There are two kinds of undercarriage lighting, for show (dumb) and for off-road visibility at night. Either way it’s adding demand and cycles on the 12V battery—precisely why it’s dumb for show. Latter at least serves a meaningful purpose. Rivian doesn’t deliver vehicles with either, so clearly aftermarket. Or, their amber corner marker is loose and separated from fender flare. But both being loose is highly unlikely.

Illegal too, afaik.
