Default The little red "lights" on the doors...

Are they like ***** on a bull? Just there for decoration? They dont actually seem to light up.

I guess maybe they reflect light if the door is open?

If you have your door open at night they are actually reflectors so people can see it open.

Most likely a European thing. They seem to place reflectors over every inch of a car over there.

Just reflectors. Most cars either have lights or reflectors or both on the doors.

Yep that is the correct answer.
