Does anyone know which wire to cut to get just the corner lights on my EK hatch to light up only when using turn signals just like my sidemarkers? could i just tap the wires from the sidemarkers to the corner light???

You could for the bulb you could use black tape to cover up the one spot on the bulb for the parking light. There's 2 spots don't which one but try on one first if it does not work try the other side. Thats one way.

holy crap STOP cutting school


for the front corner lights there are 3 wires that go to the bulb, ground, parking/constant, and turn signal/flashing

get a test light or make one, and tap into the one that flashes you could also tap the wire for your ground, or just make your own, this is so damn easy

No seriously, opposed to cutting wires, you can either pull the wire, or the simplest way IS to get a small piece of electrical tape and put it on that one connector to the small 5W filamant of the bulb. Then if you want it back, take the bulb out, take the tape off, rub off the stickiness from the tape, and put it back in.

I ran with no side markers running for a few months, it was fine. This IS the simplest solution and it DOES work very simply.

Also, it requires nothing to make, and a 99 cent roll of duct tape, its easy, and ANY idiot can do it, even the JDM people.

Get a multimeter, you will keep using it for years and a basic one is cheap. Turn on your head lights and see what wire is hot, cut that or remove that.
