Default Parking Lights only on Side Markers??

When my parking lights are on, only the outer (side markers) are lit.....the inside ones only light for the blinker.....is this normal?

I have seen Foxes where both amber lights (inside and outside) are on with the headlights off.....is this perhaps a GT thing? Or are these people wiring them up different??

The reason I ask is because I came across a YouTube videoas saw this Cobra's parking lights:

Look at the 1 minute mark and you can see his parking lights.......

No, it has always been that way....so it is just the bulbs huh?

I plan on doing a nice headlight overhaul

Buff out some yellow, change my parking light bulbs, change my sidemarkers to clear lenses, and get some 8k HIDs (Maybe 6k, not sure )
