Title: Location of front park lights on a 1977 Cadillac Coupe Deville
Post by: Aussiecaddie77 on October 16, 2018, 03:42:49 AM
Hey guys have just purchased a 1977 Coupe Deville which needs a bit of minor work such as some trims are missing and the wiring loom to the front lights is missing meaning we have to rewire.  We can do this but we are a little unsure if the '77  Cadillac has front parkers as well as side markers? Have been unable to find photos which show exactly what is what online so any help would be appreciated . Can send through a photo of the lights if needed.

From 1968 and on car had to have both front parking lights and front & rear side markers. On some years these were combined into one housing (1969-70). On other years there were two separate lenses, but again sometimes in the same larger housing.

In addition there is also a cornering lamp next to the side marker. The left or right cornering lamp is activated by the turn signal lever when the headlight switch is pulled out either for parking lamps (halfway) or headlamps (fully).
