They are very bright. In most cases, I would like to be discreet and not alert the world "I have arrived" or light up the whole damned area where I may be, whether in my drive-way or a parking lot. I DON'T see it as a safety feature as one may think. At least it doesn't beep or chirp like so many horrible cars of the 1980s and 1990s, but if anything, the lights send a message of one that may as well shout - "Hey! Look over here!" - when otherwise nobody would. I see it as the antithesis of safety.

Same could be said for when approaching the car, and pressing the unlock on the key-fob. Like an unwanted strobe going off! In most cases, that light going off just instantly ruins and limits your ability to see in the eventual dark once they go out, either getting in the car or exiting.

Is there a way or method to set the car's lights so one may click the key-fob locking unit, or exit the vehicle, WITHOUT the driving/marker lights coming on?
