Default wiring side marker with parking lights

I want to wire side marker with front park light. How have you guys done it? The only way that I can think of is by taking off the front wheels and fender liners.

I dontunderstand why you would want to.
You just want them to stay lit any time the lights are on?

Seems like a pain in the ass to get to just for that.

I don't see the point

I've seen maybe one s2k in with this mod.. I wouldn't even know where to start
Maybe a local shop that deals with lights?

I agree with BobbyC, Why bother. Change the color of your interior lights would be just as unnecessay but at least more interesting.

I want to do this too, but I couldn't find a write up on it anywhere. I talked to a guy, and he said you could do it with a relay, but I don't know anything about wiring.

I did it. It's easy to do. When lights are on their on. Parking/headlight. Also when I lock and unlock car they flash. When your lights are on they flash in sync with the turn signal. When parking light is and you use turn signal it flip flops front side. I've had it done for about two years no problems. I remember when I did I pulled the plug from side marker I clipped a wire and ran a new wire from side marker to parking light. Had to do it to both sides.

How did you do it? I might do it this week. I have clear side markers. The bulbs are white / yellow Im not sure if led amber's will light up the whole side marker since its clear
