Kudos to Seal20 and DSY on this one. An added benefit to all this is that folks can still get an idea you're going to be turning even after you've covered up your front blinkers with bumper/hoop/winch etc. Wish I'd done it when I had my YJ rigged with previous equipment. Probably woudn't have had to smile and wave so often to the locat Good Guys!

Thanks again.

This was an easy, quick and one of the most useful mods (as I have gotten looks and reactions from people who would seem to have not seen my blinker on).
Though don't get cocky about the ease of this one as I did and in the heat of "getting a quick one out of the way" cut the wire back fron the source and double grounding the light.
It makes the blinker go wonky and you end up with too short a wire to splice to in order to correct the problem.

At least only did it to one light and checked first before proceeding to the other.

oh well great free mod!!
just for the books, when the park or head lights are on the side marker will alternate when the turn signals are in use With no lights and the turn signals in use the side and the front will flash togerher

finally did this mod after about a week of procrastinating. simple 30 min. job even including taking the grill off right? well wired them up, checked to see if they work and.............nothing, got pissed off, checked the web again, double check all connections (they were right as i thought), pulled out the tester checked all connections again.......everything should work right? well just like a dumbass,, and to make this story short.........checked the bulbs and.....both burnt out. ran to advance auto bought two new ones and a miracle just occured.......they work.

thanks to all, and to all a good night..................vic......out!
