    Anyone know how I can turn off the yellow parking lights when I drive. They are always on. It would be nice to have the car on and not have those lights on. For example camping when you need to use the power outlet in the bed. Or when you are running from the cops and you turn the corner and turn off your lights, those damn yellow ones always stay on unless you turn off the engine. Annoying.

    The only time I run from the cops in when I am caught urban wheeling. Ha

    But in all seriousness it was just an example.

    Yeah there's a wire you need to add a switch to that will allow you to turn it on or off.

    The DIY is on here no one made it a sticky.
    Do a search:
    "how to add on/off switch to your DTRL's"
    it will walk you through it.

    my phone can't copy the link.
