Great Idea For Clear Turns!, Projector owner only Options

[Kadett]

I had a great idea today. But want to hear you all about it before actually do it. Everyone knows that our projectors look like Mercedes E or S Class (dont know for sure) lights. And they have there turnsignal built into the Merc Projector itself. What if we removed the dimlight (or what its called) and rewire it for the Turn Signal. Spray a very bright bulb (Philip Vision Plus or Blue Vision) orange and VOILA.

Custom turn signals. And the ones in the bumpers can be molded away and you will have a clean looking bumper.

Or do you guys think ive been smoking to much today?? (I dont smoke actually )

Modifying the side markers to blink is simple, either at the same time as the turn signal or alternating with the turn signal. All you need is one SPDT relay...you should use two but one would work.

Terminal 85 - one of the blinking turn signal wires
Terminal 86 - ground
Terminal 30 - parking lights +12 volts(actually, you'd want another relay for this)
Terminal 87a - light-side of the cut sidemarker +12v wires (if you want the sidemarkers to be on when the parking lights are on but turn off when the turn signals are blinking.
Terminal 87 - light-side of the cut sidemarker +12v wires (if you want the sidemarkers to be off when the parking lights are on but blink when the turn signals blink)

Aren't the accent lights 194 bulbs in the projectors though? A 194 bulb can't put out enough light during the day to be visible in direct sunlight.
