Turn Signal Mod.

[Gloyale]

So......the projector headlight thread has alot of talk in it about relocating the Turn signals to the corner markers.........For better visibilty to other drivers, and to upen up room for foglights in teh stock location below the bumper.

 

 

So I thought I woudl post about how I did mine.....

 

Originally just wired the marker lights to be turns......but that left no marker light......and the old fixtures were cracked and broken, and they blinked clear not amber... and the wattage being off makes em blink fast.  Plus....Like I said the old fixtures for the larger bulb are ussually cracked and wont stay in place cause the tabs are busted off.

 

So next I tried this

 

 

Ford pickup dual filament socket.....with a ground spade on the edge.

 

Used a stepper bit to hog out the OE hole until the ford socket slipped in.

 

 

Wired it up.......Amber running light, Brighter Amber Turnsignal...the small yellow light is left as a Corner makrer.

 

 

Works excellent.......I'm gonna do this to the GFs car real soon.

Give us a night shot so we can see it better 

 

I got something in the works (again) for the corner marker on my RX.

Thanks for the post, going to be doing this soon. Strange design to have the signals so hidden in the first place,

 

Cheers

Nice write up Glo, I might have to do this on my car. I want to get rid of that silly bumper I made up front and start over and this makes more sense. Thanks!
