how do i turn these off when i open the door. it seems there are only door lights on the front driver and passenger i believe. i turned the top lights off with the switch near sunroof. Do i have to remove the bulbs to make them not come on. its annoying at night, i just want nothing to come on if i get out of the car at night. should i bother?

 

Annoying? Wow, I hardly notice them. Maybe you're in a line of work that being seen at night is bad. There's no way to turn them off short of removing the bulbs. You could also put blue lights in them which should lessen the annoying factor. That, or get some therapy.

 

I thought they went off with the interior lights??


Ihave bright LED's in mind, and i'm pretty sure they go off otherwise i would notice

 

remove the bulbs. the cover pops right out, you dont have to take the panel off

 

Mine still stays on with the interior lights off too

 

I like that lighting. Not sure how that is annoying unless your carpet is rank and your passengers notice this and u get embarrassed

 

probably for remaining undetected during late night street pharmaceutical exchanges...

 

I got Super White LEDs in the bottom door lights, and they go off when the doors are shut. I love the way they light up at night like a spotlight. So yeah, not annoying to me in the least bit

 

C'mon Buckeye. Everybody knows that blue lights in the door=rice. J/K

I do agree with the therapy remark though.

 

no but going to the back seat in a parking lot to have fun

 

I just checked in my car.

They come on ONLY if the door is open. They are not tied in with the interior lights. In other words i open the door they come on, i close the door and they immediately go on while the interior lights stay lit for 30 seconds or so.

 

basically it seems like the bulbs need to come out if really bothering. i dont understand why they even have them to watch ur step when u get out??

 

o wait ur proly not joking

 

All the high end cars are doing it these days...even some not-so high end cars do it.

I personally love it, and as soon as the door is shut they go off, so if they are staying on, perhaps one of the door switches is faulty

 

Lol, he's not saying that they are faulty. They are working perfectly fine, he just doesnt want them on at all when the door is open.
