Default Possible turn signal mod

These are available in the forum store, and as I was looking at them it occurred to me that it would be cool if they could be wired up to work in conjunction with the turn signals. Anyone know if that would be possible?

If that's what you want then just get some LED strips from Advance or Autozone and wire them to the turn signals or use 2 strips and wire one to turn signals the other to interior lights (they'll come on when you press the unlock on the factory remote) or park lights.



You can also put strips on the door bottoms for a nice look and they make great puddle lights.
There's some removable rubber caps on the bottoms so you don't even have to drill holes to run the wires

I did the LEDs in the cove area on mine - they work when I use the turn signal or apply the brake. They do not come on when the lights are turned on unless you use the turn signal or brake. Here's a write up I did on the install.

BTW, no remote option or mine.
