well since i hate my blinkers that i have on my celica now and im always looking to make mine just a lil more different. i was thinking about making my hi-beam into a blinker. the hi-beams would still be functional but i would just cut a hole in the housing and install the blinker bulb assembly on the bottom of the housing and also make my side makers blink also. well i guess i just wanted to see what people thought about that. im goin to try it out soon i just hope it wont look gay or anything.

You'll want to use 1157 bulbs for this probably. I tried this with 194 bulbs but my blinkers weren't bright enough, even at night. I'm not sure if even 1157 bulbs would be bright enough during a sunny day because of the way the high beam assembly is designed.

I wanted to insert 194 bulbs into the high beam housing so all my 4 lights would be lighted up at night...but maybe I should go for 1157 insteads...those are pretty bright! -------------------- ![]() -Rémy 02 SiR, 08 250R |
