I used two of them Andrew.. Are you going to hook up your signals to your lights too? It's not a very easy job, you have to know the wires..

Oh yeah, and another problem that I faced when I did was that the signals started flashing fast because I tapped into the signla wires so the according to the car the signals aren't working.. But I solved that by adding another socket and hiding behind the bumper and that fixed the problem and slowed the signal down to normal speed when flashing...

oic

where did you wire the relay? cuz the bumper is coming off and the wires are being spliced to the new turn signals in the jap bumper

i just want the turn signals to be on all the time, and then blink, don't need to do anything with the light below the headlight.

The relays were $10 each with the wiring harness. You need to tap into the parking light in order to hook up the relay between the signal and the parking light.

Now if you don't mind it if the signla flashes quicker than it should. You're OK. But if you do mind then you'd have to add a another socket behind the bumper and add a bulb there (That will work as your regular signal). It's not very easy said, I'd have to explain it to you and give you the colour coding. If you need the Relays, tell me and I'll pick them up from the shop today and I'll keep them for you. We just got an order of themfor the shop.

I'll help you with it if you need. The only annoying thing was the extra socket/bulb combination to keep the signal flashing rate the same.

You can also call me on my cell or at work, you have both numbers from what I remember!

I'll give you a a word of advice.. bring it to the shop and avoid the headache, it's really allot of headache, I personally wouldn't do it again because it was allot of wiring in a really tight place. I'm sure it won't cost you much!

If you insist on doing it on your own, I'll try and help you out. You have to get the sockets in order to have regular flashing signals...
