Someone brought up a point about driving lights on the wheels; they will move at a different rate than the rest of the Elio; on a rough road they could be bouncing all over the place. I feel putting driving lights by the grill is going to be the best option if you actually what them to help you see down the road.
I just want other drivers to see how wide the vehicle is at night. I don't want to be sideswiped by some jerk who cuts it too close, having thought I was as skinny as a motorcycle (which is what it looks like from the rear at night). Hence the marker lights. Reflective tape will be standard, but that's a little cheesy for me.

My morning commute is always long before the sun comes up on a stretch of I-10 that has no lighting for the most part. I want everybody else to see exactly where those front wheels are even if traffic is sparse at 3:45AM.

Yep, don't want help seeing down the road...

What Ekh said all along.
And going as far as running/brake and turn signals?
Hey, if the lights are going to be there, I'm going to put them to work.
Even more safety due to greater visibility of my intentions.
