Turn Signal Lights
So after a great weekend in Vegas, realized just before leaving that at some point, someone jacked my clear corners. Sucks, but on to the question.
So when they took the corners, on one side they cut the entire plastic housing that was holding the bulb. What I'm wondering is:
How much are these housings?
Is it going to be ok to strip the wires, connect them and cover with electric tape?
Also, I was looking at the wires on the one that they cut... there are 5 wires on the cut side, but it seems like there are only 3 on the other side that isn't cut. What are the extra two wires for? Only thing I could think of was something related to the alarm, but that is just a guess, and I don't think it is right. Any ideas?
And I just realized something else. My cold air intake's filter is down there... I'm gonna need a temporary seal over that exposed opening since it just started raining.... any suggestions?

Re: Turn Signal Lights (Kellindal)
cut and reconnect + electrical tape isn't bad.. try autozone to see if they have it or since that guy is parting the teg.. get it from him.
no clue on the 5th wire...

Do you think I should strip and connect, or should I go ahead and sauder the wires together and then cover?

what color are the wires?
i would solder them and cover with electrical tape. makes it look professional.
if you want i'll sell you my pigtails for like $20 shipped.

Re: (cougar10ag)
I don't think that these housings are all that expensive. I think I saw them on acuracarland or whatever that site is for around $5.
The wires, I think the three to the bulb on the passenger side are red/black/green. On the driver side there are two more wires, one red one black.
