instant park lamps. like the Dodges ???
Anyone know how I would be able to do this. I would like the front park lights to come on as soon as i start it up and have them turn off when the park brake is on. Is this possible or have any of you done this. I realise it's just easier to turn them on if i want them on, but most of the time i would probably forget to turn them off.

Just the front park lamps. I have heard that they would operate off an oil pressure switch??? is this true?

To have them come on when the key is on is easy, just use a 12v relay like the kind used for fog lights. Just wire the relay to come on with the key. If you want them to go off with the parking brake would require two relays. If your truck has the switch on the parking brake that makes the brake light come on the dash, again easy. [mine has that switch but I heard that some of the older trucks didn't have it] I know 71-72 had it so you could get a switch off one of those. If you don't have a clue what I am talking about, email me and I will draw you a wiring diagram.
