how do i make my bumper lights stay on and blink?

[kevinjrcb]

I've seen accords with the bumper lights on and when they turn their flickers they blink.
Just wondering how do you do it?
I tried connecting the corner light one to the bumper light but the corner light turns off.

I used brake light sockets to accommodate an 1157 bulb and the extra wire spliced to the constant on wire in the corner light.

Do not cross single function bulb sockets with multi function sockets.

All your gonna do is blow fuses.

Find yourself a pair of eg civic tail light sockets, they fit snug into our bumper lights and seal out the weather.

Or you can be cheapER and just get a set of multi function sockets that will just let dirt and water right in.

Single function being drls or blinker only

Multi function being blinkers+drl


Last thing you want to do is short out your wires and fry multiple fuses and relays

Remove the ground side from the bulb and wire it to parking light red/blk wire. This lets it blink normally during the day, and at night light up constant but turning off to blink. Bad part is that is very bright to have on constantly.

You would better off to do what Quashish recommended.

so i remove the ground from the corner light one and connect it to the bumper light red/black one? is it bad for it to be bright constantly?

Do you have a vid of what they look like at night etc? Ive been wanting to do this for awhile.

No I've been meaning to make a video of my car in general. It just works like a brake light that gets brighter to signal. It allows the bumper lights to be on at like a half power (one filament) then when you signal it powers the second filament as well.

That's exactly how I had mine set up. One of the first DIY style mods I did back in like...2002. I used a 3rd gen Accord tail light socket as they were still widely available in junkyards.

I remember searching for the exact right hyperwhite bulb to look white/blue in the low filament and still work, plus the blue reflection in the reflector looked amazing during the day...it was the early 2000's and that was "the look" to have.

I had strobe lights in there as well...the good old days.

[Quashish]

I would still do strobe lights somewhere sneaky to turn red lights green.

I have done this mod really simple mine is the white one with the lights on of course
