    i really do belive that you need to add a relay for tha type of setup were its stedy on then flashes on/off for a blinker.

    **edit** you could also tap into the side marker blinker for both positive and negitive (dont know the colors) since the side maker blinker is steady on and blinks when activated

    I try tapping into the one that is parking/singal but it stays off and dont do nothing....so the parking light the first one is always on so i tapped into that one works...FUCK THIS SUCKS lol..if i had a 88 bumper it would work...but i got custom paint so that blows..lol....so idk i prolly use a dremel an get at it and install the duel fittment....works best and easy i guess....i just dont know how to make the bumper light to singal/parking to work right...righ now they all work as in parking lights but when i hit blinker i get the hyper mode lol on only the one light that blinks on side maker....

    Re: Bumper Lights

    did you tap into the correct one on the signal part of the side marker? do your signal side markers work? it can be done man just gotta go at it slowly, i wish i had a 86-87 style setup infront of me to work one out

    the 88-89 duel setup is easy though if you dont mind makeing a custom base for it

    Re: Bumper Lights

    No....they are molded in so you either have to cut and replace em or did what i did just added a light to the housing itself...i got pics on my build thread...i used my city lights off the cheap ebay housing since the just pop off and on....easy looks the same and you have you turn singles also...
