ok=--given that, I'll have to put more creative effort into my next guess.

So will these be daytime running sidemarker lamps too (DRSML's (?)) or only full on when the lights are turned on?

Keep me informed if you or anyone can find the circuit I will be using.

As for the running lights, no. But it would be simple to change them to running lights and turn signals still. It would require the same cicuirt design, all but one wire would be the same. It would take no more and no less time to change for that.

Hmmm, now I'm wondering if I should do that. The only con is even more decreased bulb life. I guess I can lower the current as the run lights, make it so it goes to full with the other lights and the turn signals. Then the circuit would be more complex but possible to design like that.

I would like input on that. Should I keep wired to the night lights, or should I have them as running lights? If they are running lights, should I design a new circuit (time it takes does not matter because I enjoy it) to lower the current as the run lights yet have full current as night lights and turn signals to increase bulb life?

I am so bored because I have not done anything with electronics in so long that I am going to do more than the side marker turn signal, and the audible warning for the seatbelt and parking brake. I am adding an audible alarm connected to the computer so that not only will The light be activated for the warning lights, but there will also be an audible warning. Not only that, I am going to do other more complicated custom circuits. Need to find my soldering iron and solder.
