Is there a way to keep the fender lights and halos on when the Jeep is off?

[Schmeegz]

As the title says.

I have seen a few options and love the look of the slim LED fender lights, and AAL has come out with an RGB option, which would be cool for Jeep events and such, but only really practical when parked.

So is there a way to run just the halos and fender lights when the Jeep is off?
(this is what is on when the Jeep is on and the lights are set to parking lights only)

I have my halos wired to my aux and I set the aux to battery and I can turn them on when my vehicle is off. See my profile pic~

So do they still come on with your daytime running lights? Or your parking lights when the Jeep is on?

Also was this a pain to do? where did you connect to the aux? Under the hood or under the Glove?

under the hood via the mopar aux switches, yes they are activated by a button press so they can come on anytime.

I meant do you have to turn on your aux switch for your daytime running lights to work?
I also have the mopar aux switch

Yes, they turn on automatically when you turn on your Jeep, if you set the switch function to to Ignition-Last State Recall.

I'm about to order the Kiwi headlights on amazon that come with normal white halos. Can I hook that up to one of the aux switches or do I have to worry with voltage or anything? If not, did you hook it up to a 15v? I really don't want to splice into my fender lights if I can just easily hook it up to an aux switch. I'm not too educated with the electrical aspect so any advice is greatly appreciated.

Did you use a relay?

I started this thread (Nobody answer lol)

I want to do this in AUTO mode, instead to use park mode.

Using factory aux wiring with the aux switch package

Just wiring + cable to halos, foglights, and taillights?
Can you share more details

Sorry, I replied when I was still sleepy in bed.
Now that I'm awake..

Yea, my fender drl has to be turned on by turning the knob to parking lights, same as you.

For my headlight DRL, it's wired to the aux connection on my Jeep, so they can be turned on and off with a switch.

You should be able to turn headlight DRL too with Uconnect settings.

What I wish to do is turn on the headlights halo, foglights, and taillights always on when driving. Instead of just fenders DRL. -- And without the necessity to move knob manually to park lights.

I'm using aftermarket headlights, the wiring is different from OEM.
