No how to then? :P

I often put my lights on during daylight, even though it's not a volvo, because of the cars low profile. It seems quite often that others don't see it. Or, they assume that it's travelling slowly.

Are they 'on' in the pic?

They're on! In reality they're quite bright. :yesnod: I'll have to think about a how to. The hardest bit is getting them to switch off when you put your lights on.

they are a legal requirement here and really helpful as the preoccupied gits that drive here don't seem capable of seeing small dark coloured cars even in broad daylight!
I installed a small module that automatically switches my headlights on with the ignition and switches them off when the sidelights come on. The headlight switch function doesn't change.

Didn't you have those at the Lakes and Mountain run or am I dreaming? Or am I looking at the wrong lights?

That Nissan of yours is getting itself in to more and more photos on here, I reckon it wants to join the club

It's the little lights in the top grilles, I'm on about.
To be honest it's my second attempt, so they may have been on on that run.:shrug:

I have noticed that the running lights fitted as standard to current cars actually stay on with the other lights.!! and they are brighter than the others.
