    Bumper lights

    I was asking a member on here how to convert your Bumper lights to steady on lights...so when u turn on your parking lights not just your side markers are on but also your bumper lights looks really good i went to go look at the harness i just dont know which wire to tap into from the bumper lights...Did i lose you guys, or do you understand me?

    Re: Bumper lights

    you need a new harness... you need a dual filliment kinda like a taillight harness.. one line for the on allways light then the second for the blinker itself... then just wire it up

    ok go to junkyard grab the 88-89 front bumper lights then cut it to fit the 88-89 to fit ur 96-87 bumper then get some dual filament tail light bulb sockets wire then up to the wires that were there then run the extra wire to the corner light then get some silverstar bulbs and bam

    You just need to repin one wire. it is really easy. I'm about to do the same. You take the constant wire from the corner signals and wire it to the bumper lights in place of the old. I will look up which wire is which in my service manual and get back to you.

    thats to make it steady on then flash on off with with blinker right?

    never thought of doing it that way.. allways thought the allways on then dimmer to brighter looked better.. mostly the same as 240's and stuff.. guess it depends on what you like
