Call me a idiot but..

If you leave your light on it will turn off automaticly in a matter of minutes so my question is if that happens does it kill your battery even tho it auto shuts off

If you leave your lights on at all times your ballast will not last as long.
So far i went through 2 ballasts, and they are not cheap!

Not I. It kills the ballasts/bulbs quicker. I sometimes leave the parking lights on though.

I didnt know about it after 3 months of owning the car until my friend with his cl unlocked his car and his lights came on. (was amazed) and another thing is the armrest sliding out took me one month till i accidentally somehow slid it. Wish our cars had a feature where if your windows are open and you get out fo the car and hit the lock button or hold it the windows roll up automatically... im sure u can buy a relay or module for that though.

Like civic said, i dont anymore used to all the time..
I went through like 2-3 ballsts/inverters in 9 years so I learned..
I think im still using me original bulbs though.
Funny how the bulbs last longer then the inverters!

Do I know you? You seem to reccomend that I stick LEDs in my ass. I assume you speak from experience with that recommendation.

You're supposed to turn 'em off when you shut off the car... that's why there's a warning buzzer...
