!!!Signal Light Question!!! only seen this once...have you?
well the other day i was driving my box...and bumped to another box that was on
the oppossing traffic...he was making a left and i noticed that he made his
OEM fog lights signal at the same time his headlight signal would blink which
i thought looked pretty cool...has anyone seen this before? i asked my brother and
he said that you can buy that at your local autozone or pep boys.but i could'nt find any
would you peeps know where i can actually get this?

I'd imagine just rewiring the ground wire on the fog wiring to use the ground of the blinker would do it.
Then you just leave the switch on, and it should run with the turn signal. Shouldn't be too hard.

would there be any other way to make the fog light blink compared to using the fog
lamp itself.and to avoid the bulb to burn out.???
thanks guys!!!

It shouldn't burn out any faster.... In fact, only using it as a turn signal (and not as a fog light) would probably make it last longer.
Although the factory fogs do look like old school bumper lens turn signals, I think the standard turns are plenty bright. Not to mention the blinking side markers. No need to blink the fog light too.

that's a easy mod... i did that to mine but what i did was added a wire from my turn signals to the foglights and installed a diode in line to keep from back feeding in to the foglights if i have the foglights on at night...or u can go this route..my buddie drilled a hole in fog light assembly and bought a light bulb from pep boys or autozone and tapp in to the turn signal wires...

i used a 194 bulb spocket and used a 194 clear bulb..at one time i used a 194a bulb (amber) bulb...i drilled a hole onthe bottom of the fog light housing to fit the bulb socket and the ran wires from the turn signal to the bulb socket...

im thinking about doing this
but making the fog light a dedicated turn signal
i was thinking splicing teh line from the turn signal adn rewiring it so it goes to the fog
but for teh ground woudl i have to run it back to teh corner bulb ground or can i use teh stock fog ground
(or any ground for that matter)
