Approach lights

[GothicKidd]

Alright, so I've got a series 2 VR commodore, It has a mid BCM.
I've got features like, When I unlock/lock my doors the indicators flashes.
and having headlights that turn off when the ignition is off and I open the door.

Is there any way I could have approach lights ( Lights turn on/off when I unlock/lock the car? - with the headlight switch on)
without any Major modifications? Maybe extra wiring and some relays? :S

Not sure if that's what I'm after.
That looks like automatic lights when the sun goes down? :S

If you have auto light install and its running in auto mode the lights will come on when you unlock doors

Oh righto. any way of bypassing it.. and just having only lights come on with unlock?

I'm sure theres a simpler way, i have the lights turn off as soon as I open the door. and I have flashing indicators... Im sure I could do a simple setup... :\

Dunno I dont design circuits and stuff, but maybe you could get a signal wire from your door actuators or something? so when they unlock it sends a signal through the headlight wire to the relay and turns on the headlights? maybe somehow design it so it needs both the passenger and drivers door actuator signals simultaneously, so it doesn't mess with your lights when your inside the car playing with your lock. I don't know, just a thought.. haha
