Default EF8 side markers can anyone w/ an actual EF8 tell me what blinks and what doesnt?

ok im going to be installing some ef8 side markers and im curious...

what exactly does what on the ef's

what im saying is... do the markers blink with corners? or do they stay solid when the turn signals are activated. or do the corners even blink in JDM land I know they only have the one bulb??? how many damn blinking lights could they need?

pics, videos, info, would be greatly apreciated!

Does the sidemarker double as a parking light/ blinker or just plain old blinker? I have mine on my hatch wired as a parking light blinker, I just extended the USDM corner park/blinker wire and ran it there. It's probally not right but, I don't have spaz flashers and I won't take the time to change it, I'm just wondering so when I install the ones on my CRX so I get them right.

God bless your CRX. I miss seeing it do fly-bys at Olive Garden. And talking on the phone and yet hearing the car somewhere in the distance and the a little red streak.

How do you screw up the blinkers? It's not hard... just match the colors and splice in the new JDM connectors.

Thats what I did but I'm not sure if they should be a parking light plus flash like they are, or just flash and not be a parking light.

If you wired it correctly, it should work correctly, and IIRC, they're both.

it should be spliced into the bumper light, because it is only suppose to blink...
