1G instrument cluster light on with key in "ON"?
« on: December 03, 2014, 11:22:54 pm »
Is this supposed to light up the instrument cluster or is it only lit up when the parking lights are on?

If it's a Canadian car, then yes.

Their solution for having DRL's was simply to have the lights on all the time.
Objects in mirrors appear to be losing.

Thanks Cam! Seems like a funny solution but hey it works?

I just came across this thread too after some searching which re-affirms it.

I think I mainly affects the 92-94 1g's Im not 100% but I think 1990s for sure and maybe 91 also do not automatically turn on the dash lights
I like Colts.  Turbo Colts.
