I'm not sure what the correct usage of "city lights" is, actually. The
SA grill comes with the two smaller inner H1 lights, which I've heard
variously called "driving lights", "city lights", and "running
lights". The outer 7" round lights (and their required mounting
buckets) usually have to be procured separately when you get the SA
grill (busdepot SA grill comes with two outer lights, but not their
buckets).

Now, the thing I'M looking for is outer-type 7" lights that have a
small bulb inset in the top part of the reflector, separate from the
hi-lo bulb; they appear to be common in some european countries. This
small bulb comes on with the parking lights and shines almost straight
down and basically just makes the headlights light up about as bright
as the parking lights. I understand, though, that they're be plenty
bright enough to follow a 5mph campground access road at midnight.
Having formerly been a tent camper, I generally feel guilty about
circling a campground with my headlights on, illuminating every tent
along the way.
