I'm not sure if I posted this in the proper section. I'm buying some yellow bulbs to replace my stock foglights on my ms3. I think the overall night time appearance would be much better if I didnt have those parking lights on with my headlights. I still want the turnsignals to work in the front obviously just not stay on with my head lights. Anybody know of any simple solutions to fix this issue. I tried searching but nothing really seemed to answer my question. Thanks in advance!!

So, you just want to run fogs at night? Maybe I'm stupid, but that made no damn sense to me.
 
No I'm sorry that I wasnt very clear. I dont want my parking lights (in the front) on with my headlights. I dont want the amber on next to my headlight. I hope that clear it up.
 
you could always run a secondary switch that would allow you do operate your ambers manually. granted it would be kind of a ghetto move but it would work
 
also this is more of an electrical issue so it may help if oyu post up in the proper section

if the post didn't make any sense to you, why respond? he was pretty clear. he no longer wants the amber driving lights on all the time at night. he only wants them to function as blinkers after he installs yellow bulbs in the fog lights.

GoFast's idea might work. You may also be able to swap the leads between the turn signals in your headlights and the side markers. The only problem there might be that your side markers will be on all the time.

There was a similar thread somewhere...

Just pull your bulbs, place a small piece of black electrical tape over the running lamp contact on the bulb, replace bulb. Quick, cheap, easy.

You may have to figger out which contact is which on the first lamp.
