Parking lights?

Hi all,

I have a 58-plate HST and wondered if there was some way of having parking lights on?

Sometimes I park on narrowish dark roads and it'd definitely be handy to leave the outer side-lights on.

Didn't turn up much here in regards to them whilst searching, so figured I pose the question

Cheers..

Have you tried leaving the indicator stalk in either the right or left indicating position when you turn the ignition off?

I know that has been the way to do it on most cars I've had, but haven't tried it on the RRS. 2016 VW Golf GTD DSG

Why not just fit LED's, very low power consumption In Spain - 2018 F Pace - Frightened away from the Sports due to crank failures
Gone - A couple of RRS, A couple of Disco's. However thinking of another Sport.

This was the first thing I tried too, my 1988 E30 Touring had this feature, yet it seems the RRS doesn't. For such an expensive car originally, the Range Rover seems to have some very strange quirks / design choices IMO.

I've tried all combinations (lights on, off, auto, etc) but alas, it appears it simply doesn't have this feature.. oh well.

Cheers..

I could do, and probably will, but I was hoping it would have the actual basic feature available, not have to do something else as a workaround.

Cheers..
