Not against a wall but on the ground behind the car. Turn on the hazards and look at the ground behind the car. You'll see the Pontiac Arrowhead on the ground. It only works with standard incandescent bulbs. It doesn't work if you replace them with LEDs.
Well I'll be damned, you can clearly see the Pontiac logo on the ground. Nice little Easter egg from GM

I remember reading about it in a thread many years ago. Tried it for myself back then.
I seriously doubt it was ever intentional. The lights just happen to overlap and create a "V" shape.
Since "V" looks like a Pontiac crest/arrow head, I guess overzealous Firebird owner's got excited.
