It's easy. Takes all of 5mins.

Here's a pic before I unplugged the small led inside

Read this thread. It has all the info to use blinker as city light while retaining blinker function.

Judging by the pictures, I think hes talking about the turn signals. And I have thought about doing this too. I first noticed that my turn signal takes an amber 1157, when I had a bulb go out. But its only wired for one function. However I also noticed a small rubber plug that would normally be a wire for "parking lights". I will take some picture today sometime. It looks to me that it just needs to be wired and it should work. I'm thinking robbing power from the city light on each side. It should be a one wire hook up. Only thing I see being a bit problematic is finding the right terminal that clips into the socket. If this all works like I'm thinking it would be a very factory looking mod. Again I will be sure to take a few pictures today.

I think OP is asking that he want his turn signal to have a constant power like the "city light" but still have the same function. When the car turns, it blinks, otherwise it still powered on.

Buy a dual filament bulb for the turn signals.

Answers have been covered already in the thread, swap wires from city to turn signal, or get Integra sockets or ones that u can use a dual filament bulb so you can have turn/city. Some of you CL guys get confusing. Keep it simple

The turn single bulb is already a dual one. Jus wire power to the port that's blocked with the rubber. It's not hard at all.
