Side lights

stevelee65 · Apr 8th, 2012, 15:04

Hi Guys,

I have a V70 D5 2004 and was wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to have the sidelights as running lights rather than the main headlights ?

Cheers

Steve.

Why would you want to? haha ...

I think it's a trip to the dealership to get this done. Or you could just turn on the sidelights when you get in the car, but that means turning them off each time you leave as well.

That one is new to me, but i read somewhere that you should probably inform your insurance company if you do turn them off, as you are altering safety features of the car.

Aye sure and then they bump up the premiums.

Maybe, but better than refusing to pay out when you're involved in a claim.
