Lights On Indicator for Pre-MY07 cars

There is a solution to the missing "Lights On" Indicator on the dash for Pre-MY07 cars (those that don't have that big blue dash light)

The solution is to have a set of LR driving lamps wired up (thanks TFC Thumbs Up ) via the kosher route and leave the dash button permanently pressed.



The driving lamps won't illuminate unless you activate the main beam, but the lamp on the switch goes on and off with the status of the side lights, be they set On or Auto on the rotary switch.

Plus, without having to think about it, you get the benefit of a four lamp flash instead of a two lamp one when you flash oncoming vehicles Whistle

Better lights on indicator is to leave the indicator arm forward, then when the lights come o you get a nice blue warning light! Whistle Whistle Shocked
