I have a 1988 Mecerdes 190 E 2.3 and I have to turn on parking & inside cluster and headlights on manual by a switch. I want to wire the car so that the parking & inside cluster and headlights turned on automatically after I turn on the engine. Can anyone let me know if this is possible, if yes, please let me know how to go about it.

Thanks

do you mean you want it to turn on with a remote start or just everything you turn on your car you want the light to go on. If you want them on when the car is on just tap them to the ignition wire for the vehicle that way when the key is in the on position the lights will be on. If you do it this way I would recommend a switch just in case you have to turn the lights off for a peticular reaons while still leaving the car on.

Dont forget to use a relay to wire them in, 87 to 10a fused 12 v constant, 85 to 12 v switched/ignition, 86 to ground, and 30 to headlamp wire.

You can add a switch to the wire on the ignition side of the relay, just cut wire in half and wire each side to a switch.
