this may be true when the vehicle is facing you, but what about from the back? you will have no indication at all. your installer is cutting corners.Ted

+1. Your installer fed you that line because he is being lazy. As stated you will have no back lights and also you will find, when you are starting the car when it is dark, depending on where it is parked, your headlights will be shining directly into someone window or car when the parked facing you. It annoys people to death. This is why as industry standard we "Always" tie into the parking lights, it notifies you from all 4 corners and doesn't blind people for 20 minutes while the customer waits for there car to warm up. and this fix can easily be accomplished with an additional 20 minutes of install time.    Where not making this stuff up. We know installers and the game.

all back lights come one. i did mention it to him the options that were listed but he said that this was the only way. installer was a co-worker of my friend at a car dealership that i bring my other car to and did it after hours on the side. wish you knowledgable guys were around here!!

What he meant to say was, "This is the only way....that I'm familiar with) It is 100% not the only way https://www.directechs.com/repository/tech_docs//Document10034-2038.pdf

print him out that page and see if he'll finish the job, its one thing if it was done as a favor but if you paid for it, tell him you want it done right. It's literally 1 wire, through the firewall grommet to the relay, he doesnt even have to solider it, he can just rap it around the pin and push the relay back in.
