Question NE1 knows how to make the front parking lights to blink?

The yellow lense in the front side bumper turns on when the lights are on. Anyone knows how we can re-wire and make those blink as turning signals? RX in US doesn't have side marker turn signals, so please any expert let me know, thank you!

Default hmm

This is just a shot in the dark, using my little knowledge of other cars and experience. If you were to take the wires that power the parking light, and cut them, then splice from the turn signal bulbs, I would imagine it would work. I think that the signals on the rx, only light up when blinking, so they should have one filament. And thus 2 wires, that if you splice onto and connect to the parking lights, would make them flash as well. It may cause them to blink faster tho, Im not sure. This is just an educated guess. If you try it, or figure it out, let us know.

I want to have just a side marker, and no lower orange bumper light, just like the JDM RX300.
But it would be too much to have the little front orange bumper light, AND a side marker..imho.. anyone seen it, does it look good?

not yet... I still haven't had time to remove the bumper and follow your wiring setups...

But your theory seems very logical though, I think it's going to work, just have to find the time when I can remove the whole front bumper....

thanks,
