I could further reduce the running light draw.
The front blinker and running light, a 2 filament #1157 bulb. If I really wanted to I could remove and rewire the front blinker/running light so that the running light function is accomplished with an LED and put something like an #1156 bulb for the actual blinking of the blinker.
I just need something that draws a little more than an amp on one side of the blinker circuit to cycle the blinker module.
Doing this would only save about 0.5 to 1 amp when the running lights are on, hence the reason I have not messed with it.
Also the dash lights. Those are a pain and would only save up to about 1 amp.
Most of them are burned out in my 454 gas suburban so I need to take care of them at some point.
