Default Wiring Up Bumper Lights ?

Yeah, I know its ricey, old school, and blah blah blah... save it.

Does anyone know how I could wire up my bumper lights (I have an EF) to come one while keeping these characteristics:

- having them signal (going off and on, NOT using dual filament bulbs).
- and having them signal fast.

You can purchase a 1157 dual fillament bulb socket and rewire your existing socket and it shouldn't need any modifications for your current 1156.

1156 or 1157 one of which is the dual fillament bulb/socket I just can't remember which one

So WHY do you want to make your bumper light not functional...NTM have that annoying fast blinking


BUT here you go:

take a wire and splice it from your inside corner light (the one that is always on when your parking lights are on) and run the hot wire that you spliced to the corner light (positive to positive) to the bumper light. Viola j00 have instant rice.

Why don't you use a dual fillament bulb preserving function and still able to use as a "fog light"

Better stock up on bumper housings because your WILL melt .
