So, I was wiring my side markers yesterday, and there are only two wires coming out of the harness. My question is that I want them to be markers and blinkers, so how would I wire them? I saw the write-up in mods, but I'm assuming that one wire on the harness is a ground, and another is the power, so how would I get them to be markers and blinkers?...right now, I have them as blinkers only because I spliced only the power wire onto the side turn signals....when I splice into the other wire on the side signals, they just stay on all the time, and never blink....

alright, got it done! woohoo!
wired em as markers, and they are lookin gooood!
my detailer is doing a wash/wax tomorrow, so i'm going to have him get the last of the old foam tape off...
nobody mentioned how much tighter space is on the passenger side, though... and with the R spoiler, i can't fit my big head under the car. pain!

Which way do you want it wired?
If you are going to the meet on Saturday, I can show you there. I did Grant's on Sunday. I rewired mine on Saturday so I could sell Grant the harness.

You know what, I think I might ask you to assist me. I'm going to the meet so any tools you want me to bring to do it? Thanks...

No need. I will have my tools to do it in the car still.
