one piece headlight leds as blinkers
Thursday, May 14, 2009 7:46 PM
So I've decided that I want to use the six 8mm LEDs in the one piece headlights as a turn signal. Therefore I need a couple questions answered.

I am going to need a flasher to run the 6 leds per headlight to keep it at a normal beat.

Also I've been searching and can't seem to find a decent place that will sell 8mm leds without selling them in a pack. If anyone wants to point me to a couple websites that have them feel free too (they must be amber 8mm leds)

Thanks josh. Guess I'll be ordering that too

I found LED's so that information is no longer needed.

And yes I will be using LED's only for my front turn signals.

Just because of this, I started to think of a LED turn signal idea myself. Now, if I could only get some of this done myself.

he is going from an 00-02 setup to a 95-99 setup so he has no bumper lights. he HAS to use the relay and wire in the new turns the way he needs
