In all seriousness, try searching on Google or something like that. I'm sure that it may just be a matter of splicing/switching some wires to get them to stay on with your lights. I did it back in the day on my '91 Integra, but that was so long ago and I can't remember what I did thanks to abusive drinking during that time period.

you wouldnt want to keep them on all the time they will burn the plastic and melt.

If you want more attention, just put some giant orange stickers on your car or something.

its easy just splice them into the relay for ur head lights so when u turn on ur head lights they turn on too. or u can splice into ur fog light if u have it so u can have them on with ur fogs. not very hard if u can solder.

This kinda stuff seems complicated but its definitely easy if you know the basics, my only concern is melting, happend to me before....

Man thats stupid its like saying the headlights will melt the material was made to withstand heat and its not for the attention it looks bad ass why do u think people buy the JDM side markers cause the amber color makes them look as if their on so give this cat a brake hes only trying to speak pig Latin ha ha.

Theres two ways to wire up your sidemarkers to stay on when the parking lights are on:

The cheap (shortcut) way & and the more "proper" way using a 5-prong relay:

1) cheap way - tap the + lead from your parking light on your headlight and run it to the the sidemarker. Cut the negative ground on the sidemarker, and tap the + wire you just ran to the negative terminal on the sidemarker. Now you have two +'s running the sidemarker and this should work. I say "should" because I haven't done it to my EVO, but have done it numerous times on Hondas, VW's etc.

2) "proper" way - too hard to describe, but basically you use the relay to allow both currents to switch to keep the sidemarker on...

Ill do a DIY when I get my evo back from the shop (just got into an accident on tuesday). I have to go by memory to wire up the 5-prong relay, but its pretty straight-forward. The relay has 5 prongs numbered as such: 87, 87a, 85, 86, 30

From memory, i think the wiring goes like this:

30 - to side marker +
85 - ground
86 - from sidemarker or signal +
87a - from parking light +
87 - (dont remember if this needs to be hooked up

I actually have a relay laying around.. I just need my car back so I can test-wire it. I'll keep u guys posted.

how so? when it has been done before (back to the honda days) dont post info you arent too sure about... or have you even try it? your assumption is giving the wrong information.
had this mod done before and they wont melt. you set the lights to turn on with the rest of your lights.

it can be done...

i was waiting for a friend at the in n out in moreno valley...

this guy rolls up in an evo....i ask him about his side markers/they were lit up...

i will hit him up and let you know....

oh yeh.....(and it wont melt)....
the bad thing is that you need a 2 signal bulb that will allow you to keep them on and for them to have the feature to signal as well.
similar to the tail light bulbs.

Your parking light (the one above your blinker) just tap that red wire and run it to your side marker.
Next cut the ground off (black wire) the side marker and connect the wire you just ran from the front to the black wire u just cut coming off the sidemarker.... Now they stay on like parking lights, blink when u hit the turn signal JDM style and flas hazards like normal..Hope this helps!!!
