that means when headlights on all the puddle lights on? that sounds like a christmas tree

in any case if that's what you want to do just wire them up to the headlights on the ballast input, that's the easiest way i can think of

theres all kinds of different classes. your car does not fall into the same class as a limo or a rig. just like suv's have different laws then trucks.

bottom line, yes its illegal to drive with them on.

If interested I have my puddle lights for sale. I got it from one of our fenders for 100 bucks a few months ago.

I'm selling it for 75 bucks shipped. I'll post it on the classified soon.
