sweet pics like the mod... so uhm did you do it with navcoder cause you mentioned programming? or did you use just some relays. Also does this mean that the yellow lights will never come on again?

I kinda like the parking lights so not really something I'd do, but if you like it then hooray for a good mod.

My purpose for this mod is to turn off the amber lights/park lights when the headlights are ON just like the new bimmers. Mike told me about programming codes to use on a nav coder. While I was working on it, i asked my neighbor Bernard (he's a German engineer) to come over help me out. He brought some relays and did rewiring work. I may have to ask him to do a detailed DIY for me this weekend. He made it look so easy cause we were drinking and talking about Blackhawks hockey doing it.
The angel eyes bulb- I bought it from EFX for $59 free shipping. Easy to install. Google em. 312-238-9044
The park/amber lights only work when I use my turn signals now.
