    anyone ever wire them to stay on all the time, when turning on the headlights? couldn't find anything on it.

    its possible, but not simple (if you want them to still flash)

    if you dont care about flashing its even easier.

    You could wire them to the blinkers in the headlights I guess...

    i basically swapped wirings with the bumper markers so they do the opposite. so the bumper markers now blink.

    basically just extended the wirings and little cutting and splicing.

    the only way to do it so they blink like normal with lights off, and stay on but still blink with lights on.

    i was bored last year and figured out how to wire it.

    this is the result:

    TS = turn signal input

    haha, i don't know why i didn't think of that! so i can just cut my side marker wiring splice on extra wires and run them to the side repeaters? what kind of wire do you have to use?
    i'm seriously thinking about doing this now.
