City lights: Colloquial city light terminology for front position lamps derives from the practice, formerly adhered to in cities like Moscow, London and Paris, of driving at night in built-up areas using these low-intensity lights rather than headlamps.

Very cool and polite.

I have my moments lol

Also a little trick for those that have litronics like myself and do not care for the light color mismatch between the city light and headlight, you can always upgrade to the LED version of the city light bulb or just pull the bulb out of the housing and take a black sharpie to it, it will match up nicely.
