Amir khan Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Hi all, I was sure i saw something like this last night. How can i get rid of my indicators in the bumper and put them where the sidelights in the headlights are? I tried to just snip and connect the wire for the indicator to the sidelight today to see if it would light up before getting the orange bulbs but failed can someone give me some help thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 What are you going to do to cover the holes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amir khan Posted October 7, 2008 Author Share Posted October 7, 2008 if you mean the holes in the bumper, im in the middle of putting on my bomex front bumper, so i will just cut off and smooth the area used to screw the indicators onto. has anyone done this before?

Not that i know of you might be the first. Where do you stand on an MOT with no side lights? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I keep thinking about doing mine but have never get round to doing it. http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=296315&highlight=turn+signal http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=116482&pp=25&highlight=fog+light+mod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amir khan Posted October 7, 2008 Author Share Posted October 7, 2008 Thats great merckx thanks for that, One thing, do we do the wiring as they have or do we do it opposite? so do drivers like they done passengers and vice versa Basically to stop any confusion is the wiring of indicators exactly the same for rhd and lhd cars? hope that makes sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr lover Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I have done this to mine, you will need different bulbs or a resistor or they will flash too fast. Mot wise you you do need sidelights or do you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amir khan Posted October 7, 2008 Author Share Posted October 7, 2008 what bulbs do you use that use lower resistance so a resistor isnt needed? thanks mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amir khan Posted October 8, 2008 Author Share Posted October 8, 2008 just done mine today. this was really easy to do, Thought i got it wrong first but had damaged the bulb. so some advice check your bulbs are working before going back and taking the wiring apart!!! looks good and i used the standard bulbs and they blink at the normal rate! now i just need to get orange ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tricky-Ricky Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Did convert mine, but despite using super bright LEDs i felt they where not visible enough, so for safety's sake i changed back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
