Default Rear Turn Signals as Marker Lights

On my 2005 1200r one of the first things I noticed and would like to change is the Rear Turn Signals. I notice they Only Work as Turn Signals While the Fronts work as Both Turn Signals AND Marker Lights. I would like to have the Rears work as marker lights also.

The Parts guy at the dealer told me I had to purchase Complete Front turn signals and put them on in the back. Stated I had to do this because of the Single / Double element issues. When I said Ok and asked about weather the wiring harness was already configured for this he said YES. This doesnt make much Sense to me. I Know they already have a Kit complete with Red Lenses to turn your turn signals into brake/turn signal lights although I dont know if this Kit lights the turnsignals when the brakes Are Not applied and Im Not really interested in this mod. I Want my parking lights All the way around like it should have been designed to do.

Anybody got any ideas on what it will take to do this Mod. Why would harley NOT make them All marker lights / Turn Signals in the First Place. Thanks
