No need to be like that...
The parking light bulb looks like a different color than the headlight when just the parking lights are on. The "blinker" filament matches the headlight (assuming its hyperwhite with hyperwhite or superwhite or whatever kind of bulbs they are) and doesn't look bad, just real bright.

They make something to keep the brighter filament on and when you signal it still flashes the bright filament. Search it or someone will eventually post what it is because I don't have it hence I don't know.

theres three wires going to the corner bulb...find the positive and the negative ones...cut splice and switch the two, it will cause the second filament to light up...you loose the signal in the front, but the bulb will be brighter...youll also get that "hyperactive blinker" that was so popular in the mid 90's...oh and by the way...when someone asks a simple question...if you dont want to answer or help, why poke fun at the guys question...? kinda defeats the purpose of the board now doesnt it?
