03SilverTL

Alright i have a 03 Tl-P, and i know the lights are auto off and go off in like 15 seconds or something. My question is if i just leave the lights selector in the "on" position all the time will that drain my battery at all. I'm not sure if there's some small drain in the battery even whent he lights are off.(i feel more safe using my lights during the day and its a pain to have to turn them on and off every time)

thanks in advance for the help

You can leave your lowbeams on the ON position. All power is cut off when you turn off the ignition key.

Turning them on and off is a pain in the ass? Wow.

You do realize that bulbs only have a certain lifespan right? By unnecessarily leaving them on all the time, you're shortening their lifespan. The HID bulbs aren't cheap to replace.

I had brought this same question up about a week ago, do a search for auto light feature.

Nawww

leaving them on doesnt waste the bulbs, its turning them off and on again over and over that uses them up. besides it's worth the expense to be safer on the road. FACT: leaving your lights on even during the day makes you safer, not because you can see better, dumbasses, but because people can see you better.

Nawww

All power is cut off? what are you talking about? First of all the lights wait a few seconds to turn off after you take the key out, and beyond that, ALL cars drain the battery slowly when not being driven. very slowly, but they do. that's why if you let a car sit for a long time, it won't start without a jump.
