So I installed my new Savage Off-road bumper and overlooked one major thing. What am I going to do with my turn signals that came out of the stock bumper? Here is a picture of what I was thinking, but couldn't quite find the correct application of a fully enclosed sleek turn signal.

Any idea where I can get a two wire fully enclosed LED turn signal with a "L" bracket? I looked on autolumination but they had ones with 3 wires "dim" "bright" and "ground" which is not what I need, or can I just not hook up the "dim" wire and let it go?

photo didn't load, but you can also look into relocating turn signal into marker lights.

Mounting onto the fender?

No the corner marker lights get converted to turn signals. See my build thread or there is also a few more guys who did it as well. IMO much more clean then just adding lights that won't look like they belong on the bumper.

I like that idea, thanks for the link. Not that mounting a turn signal to the bumper is bad or even looks bad but the less breakable stuff that I have on there the better. Thanks guys.

I mounted mine under the headlights....

keep it clean mount then in the corner lights with some amber bulbs

I like that idea, but what happens to the marker lights? Or is it a "who cares?" type of situation?

If your set on mounting them to your bumper, go to a junk yard and snag some off a motorcycle. Newer bikes use LED's.....

if you convert to dual element bulb (1157A) like I did, you don't loose anything. Or you can just make another hole for the original bulb and run two bulbs. IMO running an 1157 is a cleaner solution.

Im assuming I will have to get the 1157 base to convert from the 7440 for the turn signal. Then retrofit the dual element for the marker light and the turn signal making them one connection? That is how this is playing out in my head.

Take a 1" hole bit and drill another hole into the back of the corner light.

It's that simple.

Jumper - Like this for the corner markers. You keep your original wiring and bulb, just drill a 1 - 1.5 inch hole just underneath the one that is there now, place your bulb in, you will have to secure it in place (I used 2 zap-straps) but to keep water out, you could use silicon.

Excellent!! Can do. Thanks for the pics



Just finished. Happy with the result. Here is a video with the hazards

Excellent. Looks good and didn't cost you a cent.

Well, $4 for the Amber bulbs and and $17 for a new set of drill bits. (I will take any excuse to buy new tools/accessories)

good deal, those look bright as hell.
