wiring turning lights?
got a new bumper cover but it didnt come with a slot for my marker lights. I have no choice but to put on ugly LED strips.
got a wiring ?
LED'S have a ground and power, the stock lights have ground power and green (thinking thats the flasher?)
anyways how do I wire this up, and is it safe cause I looked on line and I got info that the green wire should be conected to the ground.
so I conected the power to power, ground to ground with the green? it worked but the flasher fuse went after a min. the lights stayed on but no signals.
is there a way of doing this or do I need marker lights that come with red black and green?
if it possible Id like to have them just work as turning lights, they look dumb as running lights

Have you tried wiring the strip to the green & ground, and leave the power not connected. I know when I changed mine to LED's one ran constant when the turn signal was off, but as soon as I used the turn signal they would alternately flash.
Also you could try wiring it into your running lights because if they work like the ones I have due to the low current draw they should flash as well, and you only have two wires to worry about.

got it working
I connected the red from the LED'S to the green wire off the car and the two ground together, I left the red from the car hanging untouch, no more running light just signals
just how I wanted it
