To make the front turn signal a running light, and make the corner lens the turn signal isn't really hard. I didn't take pictures during install due to camera batteries being dead, but I made a 2-d version in AI.

Make sure you are comfortable with cutting and connecting wires, especially tiny ones with not much to work with.
Get a dedicated pair of wire cutters and crimpers if you are going that route, I did, or solder if you go that route. I really suggest having some 18 or 16 gauge wire because they are so short in the car. I wired mine with the lights in the car. Remove the bumper if you want. It's actually very easy and simple. There are two wires coming out of the turn signal socket, there are two wires coming out of the running light socket. So cut the wires on the turn signal and running light and basically just switch the wires into the different sockets. Meaning, the running light has the turn signal's old wires going into it, the turn signal has the old running light's wires in it. Make sure all the connections are secure and everything works. Very easy and one light took me maybe 20 - 30 minutes. And I was sort of figuring out what to do, how to do it and trying to find all the damn parts I needed. For the best results, remove the amber lens over the turn signal circle and upgrade to a better bulb; www.autolumination.com

 

Great Job!

 

That is very nice. Do you know if it is close to the same for 2003's?

 

According to that diagram, it should be the same for our '02-'03s.

 

this is sweet thanks very much,
i'm tihnking about putting green park lights

 

Not a problem!


If you want a different parking light I would suggest an LED since they are the brightest possibility for such a small wedge bulb. The number of the bulb is #2825 and autolumination.com has some pretty bright ones.

 

Nice little write up man. I was going to do this but decided to save up and get some Cedia lamps. I'll have to do some cutting and such when I get those so I decided to just leave it for a little while.

 

i might try this on my 02 but do fog lights as running lights or do both as run lights. thanks for the wright up

 

yea i bought my blue parking lights from autolummination.com greta company

 

i'm going to do this but will i get pull over for doing this set up??
i read in this other guy pose he got pull over 3 times??

 

ok so i did this and i did the wrong blub haha

still looks good though

 

nice diagrams

 

Oh no which one did you do? I'm assuming the little wedge and the turn signal and not the corner?

 

Thanks! I stole Illustrator CS from school, making good use of it too.

 

yeah i didn't notice the other ones untill i already did it bahahahi'm switching them back here soon
