hey guys. my angel eyes are currently tapped into my fog lights so when i turn on my fog lights they turn on too. however, im planning to tap the angel eyes into my park lights so when i turn on my park lights they will also turn on. but i was wondering how long is the life span of the angel eyes? will they burn out quickly?

Nah you'll be right

I had mine hooked to my Parkers and they were fine for ages

I put them on the fog switch so that you can turn them on and off as you please. Say if the cops pull you over and say "turn them off" you can and still drive home. If you wire them to the park lights, you're stuffed.

It's pretty much illegal to do anything with your lights...

is there a way for my angel eyes to have an independent switch?
without really playing around with the wiring?

gpx000 Im only on reds aswell and was worried about cops seeing as mine are red, and the easiest way to avoid attention is to wire them into a switch.

yeah got the hooked up onto my park lights, it should be ok coz i have HID's so you cant really see them during low beam.
just when the park lights are on. but mine arent red so i doubt mine will catch any attention from cops.
