Default Lights left on alarm

Hi All,

I'm sure that UK spec S2000s have lights on warnings but my JDM doesn't. (Unless it's just my car and not a JDM specific thing).

This seems to be asking for a flat battery some time soon. Can one be retrofitted to the car?

Its one of the things I love.

I hate beeps.... all of our other cars have beeps for everything....

The only thing I want to remove from my S is the one which tells you the key is in the ignition

My old Laguna used to speak to you and tell you you'd left the lights on

I got a bit worried when it said "Engine overheating, STOP NOW!" though!

I've just spotted my massive grammatical paux pas

Naturally, I meant to type "your" rather than "you're".

Ahem.

Mine doesn't, but then to be honest, the drivers door switch is knackered so I'd always assumed there'd be a lights on beep if the switch worked.
