you can just cut two of the leads on each stock bulb (the two inside leads i belive) and it will not be on all the time

I just did this last night. Just cut off the leads that go to the filament which lights all the time. Works great.

yeah there is...i did it by accident. after i cleared my headlights i was anxious to get the bulbs & the only place nearby that had bulbs was autozone...anyways its the 7440's i think.. (just look @ the filaments in the bulb...the stock one has 2 one to blink one to stay on...the 7440's only have 1..to blink!)
