Default Parking light delete?

What's the procedure to do the infamous parking light delete mod. I have some time today to swap out some bulbs and I was wondering how to do this.

It's when you turn on your headlights, but your corner lights dont turn on with them. They only blink when you hit the turn signal switch.

Juni, all you need to do is look at the bulb and bulb holder and you will notice two separate contact points. On is for the turn signal, the other for the parking light. Use a small piece of electrical tape and place it over the parking light contact (trial and error 50% chance). That's it. Cheap, easy, and completely reversable.

Thanks Clex2! I was thinking it was more complicated than that.

this only work with the signals, but if you like that only the head low and/high come on i think that the work is in the switch,onboard, the switch have 3 position.. off, shorth(side) and head, maybe if cut the cables and intarchange the shorts and head only the head come on with the switch in first position and the shorts with the switch fully on

aditional tip,,,,, and realy bautiful, if you put a bridge in the signal cable for the signal ligth of front corner and cut the ground of the side markers(front of the door) replace this cut ground whit the new bridge beetwen front signal ligth yours side markers come on with the shorts ligths when you turn on it and also function the flasher when you put the signal ligths ever. i put this in my TI and is realy hot ... al the ligths on during the nigth
