Gee, just think of how many cup holders you could get in all that
space! <snork>, sorry, couldn't resist (it is Friday...)

So what about doing away with the lights altogether?  I've seen
several (well, 2) GTV's around here with the marker lights removed and
it looks very nice.  I would argue that the aesthetic is similar to
John H.'s comment (if I may be so bold as to make the connection) that
the removal of the C-pillar badges (sorry Ben!) leads to a cleaner
line.  Maybe not so much with the smaller series 1 lights, but those
big rectangular ones sure stick out.  Well, just a thought.
