Does my 07 have front parking lights?

I don't see that I have any front parking lights. I am interested in installing switchback led's but don't want to buy them if I can't use them. On every setting of the light switch I don't get the amber lighting. Only daytime running lights or headlights. All of the rears work fine.

If you open your headlight, you can see there is another bulb next to the signal bulb. It is parking / side marker light.

Did you go out front and look with the light switch set to the different settings?

On my old 07LE, the turn signal light and parking light were one and the same bulb.
Bright and flash = turn signal , the high wattage side of the bulb.
Normal and on all of the time with the headlights and only parking lights, is the low wattage filament side of the same bulb.

Well from what you guys are telling me is that I should have them. Yes I've looked at the lights on every setting but the amber lights do not light. The bulbs are double filament I've checked. Now I just need to figure out why they don't work.

The turn/parking bulbs are a PITA to get to. loosen the fender well liner from the front of the drive tires and reach inside to rremove the socket.

Good luck, (Are you outside the 3 year - 36,000 mile bumper to bumper?)

All light bulbs are not included in the extended warranty coverage I have, better read yours. That light bulb might end up costing you $75.00+ (each) at a dealer...

Good thing I work for a very large Toyota dealer! I can get most everything covered as long as I have some sort of warranty coverage.
