well, have ya decided where yer gonna put the signal lights, cause i tried using the corner lamps, and they weren't very effective.

the only way you can really do it is if you put another hole in yer light housings and wire up for driving lights, but have them turn off when you use yer signal lights

I was thinkn of using led strip . I can probably use two le strips. one for the signal and one for the driving lights.

Rewire the car. Put white bulbs/lenses into the bumper lights. Put all amber bulbs in the corners (keep the signals legal, whites come from the factory, no good for turn signals)

Rewire the car so that wires that go to the corner lights go to the bumper lights, and the bumper lights wiring goes to the inside bulb in the corner lights. Corner lights inside bulbs will blink for turns, be off the rest of the time, and the bumper lights will be steady on. Outside corner bulbs will work as normal (on normally, blink with turns)

You may have to put a heavier duty fuse in though.

you use 92-00 civic sockets from the corners...green wire on the socket goes to the bumper light pos wire, run a wire from the inner corner light pos to the red wire on the socket and black wire from the socket goes to ground wire of the socket
