Frs SpecD Boomerang Headlights

I'm wanting to only have the turn signals on the headlights. I tried removing the bulbs from the stock turn signals but it does the quick blinking when removed. Does anyone know of a way to connect the wires so the turn signals are deactivated from stock location. Thanks for any help

Just so I get this right, you don't want the turn signals to be active? You can just not wire the turn signals.

Just bypass the stock indicators? If the SpecD's source/tap from the existing indicators, then you could simply cut the wire going to the stock indicators AFTER the tap.

Cutting the connector will cause the same issue as taking the bulbs out. You need to get a hyperflash relay and then just take the bulbs out of the socket.

You don't really want to cut the wiring. If you ever trade the car in, the next owner will appreciate being able to change the headlights wihtout having to rewire the turn signals back into the car.
