Easiest way...remove the plug from the back of the front fender markers, and use those wires. This way, they come on with the parking lights, and you also eliminate the US-spec fender markers. If you want to get a bit more involved, you can wire up a ground-side switch so you can turn the city lights on and off indepenantly of the parking lights. I highly reccomend that if you decide to run colored bulbs, as they -can- be seen through the normal light produced by the main bulb. HTH -Dave '91 Jetta GTX 16V '88 Jetta GLI 16V '84 Vanagon
