I have a 2003 Chevy Silverado and am installing a Viper 791XV with the various interface modules.

Has anyone been able to integrate the use of the perimeter lighting feature (daytime running lamps, backup lights, lights under rear view mirrors illuminate when factory alarm is disarmed) with this application?

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Chris Andersen

The last one I did with the 457, the lights you were talking about were lit up any time you disarmed the alarm

do the lights under the mirrors light up when the door is open? if so, you need to hook up the dome supervision to get that.

No, The lights under the mirrors and the others mentioned only light up when the factory alarm is dissarmed.

I was thinking of using dome light supervision to make this work, but the lights under the mirrors are 500mv not 12v.

My mistake, my meter was acting up. All of the approach lights are 12v. I think domelight supervision is the way to go. Unless someone has another suggestion.

Thanks
