If you want the Marker Lights (#20 & #24) to come on with the Dash Lights
(#40), You can unscrew the Big Connector from the Light Switch(3 Lever) cut
"E" (#20 & #24)wire about 4 inches away from the connector, crimp on a
bullet terminal and run the part of wire that is still in the harness (not
the 4 inch pigtail) to #40 (Dash Lights). this way you will have the Marker
Lights come on with the Dash Lights and you will also have 2 levels of
brightness also, (Hi/Lo). I can draw it up if need be. Will post it on

Hope this helps
