Just dont see the point in turning off a safety feature. You dont see them when driving so why?

No it wont affect the engine ECU , but may be mismatch errors when the car is interrogated by the volvo computer in sweden , who knows ...? only the person who wrote the tuning software , can you post the software part number which turns the running lights off when you get it done ? I thought it was no longer available for the
V50 ..
Thanks

Car is not under warranty and won't be going to dealers for next service - so any mismatch is not their worry

it's my personal choice to get them turned off.

I shall ask them for the number
