CIS-E euro ignition map?

[flaatr@yahoo.com (Euroroc II)]

The separate left and right parking light circuit allows either side to 
remain on independently from the other when the vehicle is parked. If your 
parked on the right side of a narrow road you can switch the left side 
lights on so people can see your car.

Neat idea.

Has anyone tried this ignition mod.
