Crossfire Turn Signal Mirrors!
Re: Crossfire Turn Signal Mirrors!
I've searched and searched and can't seem to find an answer for my question (yea, old thread bump but relevant). I'm trying to wire extra turn signals and I can't seem to find where in the world I connect the wires; can anyone post a diagram or give me a relatively detailed description of where I should be plugging the wires?

BEWARE: Always when doing electrical on cars take off the positive pole on the battery.
1. open up the front side markers
2. remove housing and lamp
3. cables (BROWN) and (RED AND GREY) on one side, and (BROWN) and (BLACK/GREY) on the other. See schematics and pictures.
4. the actual matter on how to do this the easiest way should be up to you. But simply, from the LEFT headlamp assembly, there is a connector. disconnect it.
5. Connect a cable to the BLACK/GREEN cable and simply connect it with the side marker.
6. Do the same on the RIGHT head lamp assembly where the cable is BLACK/WHITE and connect it to the other side marker. BEWARE: Funny enough there is a cable that is WHITE/BLACK. To decide which on it is, look for position "1" on the connector housing. the rubber around it is blue. should be top left when looking at the connections.
Voila!
HINT: Before taping up and start soldering and all, please check that everything is working properly.
If you solder, cut and twirl cables, use tape, I guess many ways of doing this is possible.
Also, I guess if you want the side markers to work as normal (illuminated at all times) AND be used as an indicator, try the above procedure BUT keep the original cables (RED/GREY) and (BLACK/GREY) but just connect the BLACK/WHITE and BLACK/GREEN aswell. It may work.

I'm not exactly sure which wires get spliced to which wires and for the life of me I can't seem to disconnect the connector.
I'm goign to attempt to add these aftermarket LED mirror indicators

to my mirrors so any advise on wiring is appreciated?
I will document and post the attempt to let everyone know if they work.
