Alright the story is that one of my turn signal lights keeps coming off of my bumper. Just so you know its a 94 Accord. Anyways I want to take both of them off but whenever I put my turn signal on they flash like crazy as if it werent flashing at all. Is there anyway to fix this without the lower bumper turn signals being required? Thanks...

Add a resistor to each circuit the same wattage as a light bulb.

radio shack would probably have it. if you have a multimeter, measure the resistance across the filament of the bulb. this will give you the value needed for the resistor

Well I still have the top ones which you still can see from the front of side of the car basically at any angle. As far as cops in NH there not too strict about stuff like that. Only loud exhausts that can be disruptive to others. Already I dont have a liscense plate on the front of the car which isnt illegal but I passed so many cops and lost track already so i dont think its much of a problem....

Another thing you could do is retrofit your turn signal bulb assembly into your corner lens. I did this on mine and its pretty easy, you just need to enlarge the hole to 1" .
