    Default Parkers Question

    Hey guys, Thinking of putting blue parker leds in, I've got a Holden VR Acclaim, Was just wondering if the parkers stay on after you switch your light switch to full lights? What I'm saying is can i turn the parkers off so when I'm driving at night they are not blue ? Or if i replace the original parkers, there's always going to be blue in my lights? tyvm

    If you just replace the original parkers with the blue ones then yes there will always be blue in your lights as the parkers remain on when the headlights are on. Not that you can't get around it of course, but not sure why anyone would bother just so they can look like a toss pot or eventually get defected for having pretty little lights.

    Definitely do not use red lights on the front of the car, it is illegal and can be confusing for other motorists.

    I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

    if you want your lights to be a little different to others at most get a very light color that isnt that noticeable.... not long ago i stuck dark blue parkers in my car and i reckon within 5 hours later i saw a car drive past me and do a u-turn and it was the cops, gave me a warning luckily but in the end its just not worth sacrificing your demerits for something that really isnt that noticeable
