Always on - all new cars have them (by law) so not having them on will make cars without them more difficult to see.

Little push/turn button next to light switch. It's really small.

Not standard equipment so not everybody has them. I think they came with Auto Lights.

Contact Trups on here, he'll sort you out with some LEDs and a cancelling unit so you son't get any errors. I tried lots of LEDs bulbs before this and none worked error free without Trups' cancelling unit.
