Re: Why did 1980s/90s cars have indicators in the bumpers instead of the headlight?

back then I don't think the technology was really available to put the indicator into the headlamp. Don't forget these were filament bulbs that need a fair space around them for the light to hit the reflector and for cooling.
integrated indicators and lamps are really only available now due to LEDs, light tubes etc. Remember when BMW first brought out the angel halos?
