I guess these would be similar to day time running lights? Looks pretty good. Don't think I will be doing it anytime soon, but it doesn't look bad. Nice work

Aren't true city lights only come on when the "parking" lights are on. On my old EG Civic 92-95, I had purchased real JDM headlights, which are glass and do not have the nipples on them So when I wired up the city lights I spilced into my parking lights. Then in the EG the corner lamp technically only lights up when the signal is on, it is off when the head lamps are on since the JDM sidemarker lights come on with the city lights. So I used two 1156 conectors over my old 1157s and wired the corner lamps to come on when signals come on.
To some it all up:
City Lights should be on when our parking lights are on. yet our corner lights should be off. Tail lamps should be on.

I guess this would be a good thing to do if you were doing a DIY black housing. Looks good though. You ever run into anyproblems with your bumper lights being on all the time? Heard it can melt the housing.

The extra 194 socket he had from his corner lights. these sockets are pretty much all universal, any auto parts store should carry them, ot just steal some from a wrecking yard.
