Deeper search comes up with FRA-approved 'bug-eyes'. Now if they wig~wag, color/or white in full on is still a question.

Dern it Toad, now you gonna make me look at the 38 I got Mama last year cause she liked the paint job!   The white Wig- Wags are the ditch lights, the ones that are red on the rear when going other way are markers!
