Did this not start with the TJ, or were the fender flare lights only reflectors and had no actual illumination?
edit: looks like they were actual lights from what I can see, which explains why that trend is continuing.
They've had working lights in the fender flare area since at least CJ days, but the main front turn signals went out of the grill and into the fenders for the TJ, then back to grill for JK, and now back to the flares for JL. The JL version is also a DRL.
