Do the math. Save the world. — Mark Leon
Good questions. I did some web searches but didn't want to dig through DMV handbooks. So here are some non-authoritative answers:
* The specs for parking lights, daytime running lights, high and low beam headlights, fog lights, turn signals, brake lights, and tail lights should be consistent across U.S. states, regulated by NHTSA.
* The original purpose for parking lights was to make a parked car visible on the side of the road without draining the battery overnight, back before electric streetlights were common. I've used them while waiting in a parking lot for "curbside pickup" takeout food, esp. to turn off the headlights while in the parked car.
* Their secondary purpose was to make the car's boundary visible while driving at night if a headlight burns out.
* Parking lights are often built into the turn signals, maybe the same lights on lower power, at least before LEDs.
* I gather that most but not all states allow parking lights on while driving only as a supplement to headlights.
* Daytime Running Lights are (always? often?) headlights on low power to make the car more visible during daytime. Required in some counties, first in Sweden, now including Canada. Extreme latitudes.
* Front fog lights are mounted low, pointed downwards, and sometimes yellow to help you see the road better in bad conditions like fog, snow, dust, and rain. They're supposed to be used with headlights but in fog, the headlights can reflect back at you, making visibility worse.
I was going to mention this, and yes the .1 update fixed this for me. It’s amazing how fast Tesla is with these updates I love it.
Just installed 2022.12.3.1
I guess there’s no additional bottom bar customization for legacy cars. It felt like Elon said yes then told me no

Maybe read the thread, this was answered a few posts before your post by cwanja
, see belowMakes sense to me: they are available in the climate menu, in much larger versions, and much easier to access (swipe up from bottom zone vs aiming for the (...) button.

Thanks! Yes, 12.3.1 fixed the issue for me as well. Happy that they pushed the update quickly and didn’t sit on it.

If you have the external speaker and are covered by the boom box recall, you can submit a ticket and ask for them to push an update. Worked for me, but only up to 8.3. Was hoping for 12.x

When I first played around with the install, I only saw the left seat control. It may have been because no one was in the passenger seat. I moved the left seat control to the "dock" and later the right seat control was also on the dock without me doing anything else.
For the wipers, I have no idea. It was there for me.
Same herestill on 2022.8.3
Might call support tomorrow and ask if they can push the update cause damn I want my buttons back

Anyone on 12.3.1 seeing the 'phone always connected' issue we had years back? Bluetooth grabs phone, card is up, looks like you can hang up, you can't, you are talking to your self. Reboot, and/or re-pair of phone do nada. Ugh... Told car to 'disconnect' phone, see if it's any better time to time, but ISTR this needed an update to fix (had this in the X way back when, this is the Y that has it now...).

Updated yesterday afternoon
The couple of UI tweaks are welcome, an extra couple of short cuts, the location of north toggle on the map. The browser is definitely more perky, I'm a '21 with the older Atom, and it feels at least twice as fast (which is still about 1/4th the speed I'd like)
Also, I just got 4.8.0 of the app - had to do the "force update" (i.e., search for app, open details, update available).
