My next question (which I made another thread for as well) but if I have some aftermarket sidemarkers, they have only two wires coming out the back, a positive and negative. How do I wire them up so that they are on when my taillights are on, but also blink whenever I put on my turn signals? Thanks.
This is a little more complicated being its only a 2 wire, single filament bulb. Its late so my thinking is limited but I do have a way to do this off the top of my head.


Pin 87: Unused
Pin 87a: Parking light wire (from vehicle)
Pin 30: 12v power wire on side marker light
Pin 85: Chasis ground
Pin 86: Turn signal wire (from vehicle)

If set up in this order, Your marker lights will be lit when the parking lights are on and when the relay sees the 12v signal from the turn signal, it will temporarily break continuity causing the marker light to flash like a turn signal.

Note: Turn signal flash may not flash in sequence with the factory signals on the car.
