Why would you want to disable a safety feature like that?

The lights dim so that on-coming drivers can see your turn-signal is flashing. If the lights don't dim, they may obscure the visibility of the front turn signal.

Manufacturers moved the turn signal lamp into the headlamp cluster to reduce complexity & cost (i.e no separate turn light module) but it turned out to be a safety issue as the headlights obscured the turn signals.

...but it's your choice, I guess. Don't know if it's a legal requirement in the US - may be worth checking.
