Non-required decorative LED or incandescent marker lights drivers add to cabs, fenders, mudflap hangers, and trailers — way beyond what DMV requires. Comes from the same world as chicken haulers: southern poultry-fleet drivers who pioneered the maximalist look. A truck 'lit up like a chicken coop' is the goal.
