    YES!!! Thats exactly what they do, stay lit until i lock then they go out. I know the exact spot now where the key will still lock at a distance.

    As soon as i unlock front, rear and mirror puddles light up for 20 seconds (changed from std 10 secs)

    Not played with the stalk yet to see if that changes anything.

    You have to leave your light switch in Auto also i think.

    Another way to switch the lights on for "coming home" . . . onve you have pushed the ignition off and pulled your fob out, press the unlock key on the fob and all the lights will come on . . .a better way then pulling the stalk cos you can see the flash when you do that . . . . bad news is the lights still go out when you lock the car.

    Hope this helps :-)

    I can confirm pulling the full beam on for a second does make the lights come on when opening the drivers door. Not ideal, but it works

    Here's what mind does;

    'Coming home' mode...
    Light sw on 'Auto'
    Turn off ignition and remove key,
    'flash' main beam,
    lights come on for preset time (as set in the MFD),
    lock car - lights stay on for remainder of duration.
    'Leaving home' mode...
    Light sw on 'auto'
    unlock car,
    lights come on for preset time (as set in the MFD),

    Light sw on 'OFF' nothing works.
