No need? Horse hockey.

Using the bulb type data from my '84's owner's manual, and not counting
the bulbs in the dash:

4 x type 1034 bulbs (2 front parking, 2 rear tail), assuming the lower
wattage filaments are lit @ 1.34A each = 5.4 amps
2 x type 1816 (rear side markers) @ .33A = 0.66 amps

Total: 6 amps/hours.

You leave those on overnight, say 12 hours, and you've pulled 72 amp
hours out of the battery.

I'm keeping my buzzer wired thankyouverymuch.
