Default Bumper lights turn on

I've seen pics of people of their usdm ef hatches with their bumper lights are on with their corner lights. Mine doesn't do that, but how did do you go about doing it? Is it hard to rewire it? But wouldn't having the bumper lights on with the corner lights somewhat disfigure the housing of the bumper lenses since they're not supposed to be on? Just a thought.

You're on the right thought process, let me finish it off. You would rewire your bumper lights straight up to the corner lenses so they act as one. The problem though is that after an amount of time (Undetermined) the lenses themselves start to discolor/melt/burn since they are plastic, but that doesn't explain why the corners which are (Correction) plastic also last. Time to search!

Ehhh...the corner lenses are plastic as well. But yeah, just splice your bumper lights to the inner corner light (the one that stays on all the time). I tried doing it to the outer corner light in my old CRX (to make that 94+ Integra look at night) and I shorted something out (the corners just totally stopped working for good).
