Default Marker lights

I replaced my marker lights with the clear ones.I dislike the orange running lights. Has any one tried to which the front double bulb to a signal white bulb and put a orange small light on the side for the blinker? Of coarse I relies I would have to which the blinker wires.

I had to modify my Vert to meet Euro standards when I brought it to UK.

I have T85 headlights which have a small bulb fitted in the housing for the parking lights.



My DRL bulbs only act as turn signals as I did the DRL inhibit mod. I also have side repeater turn signals

You could quite easily do the mod you mentioned by using the small orange lamp on the side of the T/S cluster as a turn signal. You'd need to tap into the T/S circuit as I did for the side repeaters.
