Side marker feature - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

mashal · 06-16-2013, 02:17 AM

So I was swapping some LEDs and was running into an issue and by accident I found a neat feature of the side markers.
If your front turn signal bulbs go out the side marker actually flashes as the turn signal for that side.
Some people have done mods to have the side markers flash along with the turn signals .. They may have ruined this function. Anyone with this mod want to take one of the front bulbs out and try this feature?

so if i disconnect the wire to the front turn signal in the BRZ (located in headlight btw), it'll blink the side marker?

wish both could blink at the same time :/

Wonder how easy it would be to make both bulbs blink at the same time.

that's for the FRS though, i'm not sure the BRZ is wired the same considering the front turn signal is in the headlight enclosure. i'll have to re-read that thread though.

All your doing is splicing the power wire.. Once you find that its just cut and splice.

I wouldn't do it if your running LED turn signals or clear markers.. That shit is seriously bright in the dark

you can just rewire everything like me and have the side markers be the blinker and the front lights just stay on
