My friend has a 90 Formula, or so...and I noticed while he was tailing me one day that his front marker light were always on, even when his regular lights weren't, I guess light daytime running lights...and it made the car look bad as hell, almost like it was growling (don't ask, it's just what I came up with...)...now, on my '88, they only come on when the headlights are on, and a 'Bird driving with it's lights up in the day just looks kinda goofy....I'm pretty sure someone outlined how to do it before, but I did a search and couldn't find anything...so how would I go about either linking my front markers straight to the ignition, or to a toggle of some sort...? Any help here would be appreciated, I don't imagine it's too hard, but I'd like to know for sure...thanks!!!!!

 

i thought all of the parking lights could come on without the headlights by just pulling the headlight **** out to the first stage? maybe somethings wrong with your parking lights.any comments on this anyone?

 

Well, the Bird doesn't have stages, just a button, or set of buttons....perhaps the pb is messed.......? lol, know what, I'm going out and checking that RIGHT NOW! (It IS only 2 am.........brb).

 

DRL's cam standard on all 90 and newer Canada F-bodys

 

Mine's an 88', but anyways..lol......I aways thought, for some reason, that the switch next to the headlights was hazards...haha.....I've now realized that they're my parking brake lights. Oh well, they look awesome, now that I'm not a complete retard and have figured out how to USE them.....! Thx, 91RS, I now feel like a complete ****......lol

 

don't worry bout it bro, it happens :-)

 

dude we all have our moments.my buddies dash lights wouldnt work one night coming home from the track in his 79 t/a.we were trying everything to figure out what was wrong.luckily he had a Driverlight,the screwdriver with a light inside it from craftsman.he put the light itself inside the steering wheel holes and used that as a light.and im pretty sure it turns out he just had the interior light dimmer set to off!!and me,well i wont even get into the stupid s*it ive done. :lala:

 

We all have days like that, but most of us won't fes up thats what takes guts.

 

Umm my 83 bird will do that. The switch lets you just turn on the parking lights or the parking lights and the headlights.

 

, it's ok

 

My 89 Bird does that. It has a switch for parking lights and one for reg. when the reg. lights are on it puts down the parking lights also. The front fog lights have two coils in them so they can stay on and blink at the same time. That is what your aiming for right.

 

Ok, well I have guts, so here is my admission...

I just found my spare tire last month after owning my car for a year... I kept hearing about people taking their spare tires out at the track and I finally decided that I did indeed have a spare! It only took my 5 min to find once I scratched my head about it. Damn was it hidden well hehe

 

You call that a spare i call it a joke. Good luck using it

 

Azure, if you have a 'Bird and haven't figurd it out yet, here's how..

The headlight switches in most birds (or at least the 3 I've owned) are split..just push the right side in, not the whole button

 

Don't worry, I had it figured out about middle of this pot..lol....why won't people let it DIE?? lol

 

It's a popular post! People come here to reply..and stay for the sheer entertainment

 

Its happen to me and scared me when ihad no lights, but it was just the dimmer turned all the way down!!

 

On a similar note, MAN, was that damn marker light hard to replace.......! Gah, my hand is all cratched the hell up, but it got done!
