I have a 2011 Hyundai Sonata, and the courtesy lights only last 15 seconds, which is way to short. Wondering if there is any way to extend the time limit using a Pac TR7 or a DEI 528T relay, or anything else. Also what would I need to do, is there a separate circuit or how does that work?

They were a circuit that could be modified if you know how.... (In 1980s & 1990s Jap cars they were often a module in te relay/fuse box etc.)

If they included dimming, they'd be harder to modify (the lamp load can vary the dimming cycle/delay).

These days they may be ECU controlled....
