I'm trying to ditch my stock blinkers when I goto my tube bumper. The guy building it said most customers prefer to put a double element bulb in their park lights and use it for their blinker. What else would I need to do?? Anybody have any ideas on how to wire it that way??

I used the dual filament bulb, has worked fine for ~10 years now.

 

Awesome thanks I knew there had to be a write up out their someplace.

 

i did the exact writeup on that ttora link posted above and it works flawlessly. how you mold the new hole/mounting for the bulb socket is up to you but i used some clay-like epoxy and it worked just fine with some blue rtv sealant to form a gasket. its definitely brighter and has a much better side-view angle.

 

did this on my 4runner, worked great, had no problems at all. It was one of those "I'm bored, what should I do" mods

 

Neither of those lights work on my car. :-/ Figured they were just redundant lol.

 

what do you mean?

 

Completed this mod today. Used the dremel on the housings and picked up some GM 1157 bulb sockets from Autozone. It was simple to wire. Only issue I had was the particular sockets I had just barely fit behind the park lights. I had to adjust my holes and move them over a little bit.
