any way to disable flashing the parking lights when you open a door at night?
one of my occasional hobbies is amateur astronomy. I generally use the tailgate of my vehicle as a 'desk' for my eyepieces and other equipment. There's typically a dozen or so of us, all setup behind our cars, on a very dark field somewhere remote.... having the vehicle tail and parking lights come on when you open a door is very painful, my last several astro vehicles could be completely darkened
(the 'pink' lights were in fact very deep red, they became pink due to how RBA processed this time exposure to bring out the night sky. as seen from the San Francisco 'sky glow' to the right, this is NOT a very dark site, being only 35 miles south-southeast of the center of San Francisco, nevertheless, the western and southern skies are remarkably dark)
