Hi,

I like the american look of a car during night. In europe the sidemarkers are off by default. Is there a (simple) way to turn them on on my european '90 S4.

Thanks!

You would probably need an extra (and dimmer) bulb because the point is to signal people who might be on your 3/4 that you are changing lanes and/or turning. So, if you just TURN the side marker lights on all the time then you have lost that ability to signal your intentions to others...

I've owned several brands some of them with the american sidemarker lights. These were all normal blinkers but somehow these lights get 50% constant power when driving.... I don't think there's an extra bulb involved here.

ROW/Euro cars don't have side markers only Turn Signals.

Whenever you see dual level Marker & Turn signal combos they usually are implement with dual filaments... what you would like to do is possible but not without some work. On USA cars these are markers (5W) only... USA cars do have a front turn signal/marker combo which ROW cars do not have.
