How to Re-Route the Sidelights power to the Side Indicators (markers) instead?

Hi, first of all I'm new to the forums as a member however I reguarly use the forums as a place of vast knowledge, it's great.

I've recently changed my side indicators from the CLEAR OEM stock ones to the RotaryFX CLEAR Lens versions and they look great.

What I would like to do now is simply (hopefully) re-route the cable from the SIDELIGHTS and run it to the SIDE INDICATORS so that these become my sidelights instead.

Of course I understand I will no longer have Sidelights in the Headlight Housing working but that's fine. Also I understand that I will no longer have the Side Lenses as indicators and will have just the Amber indicator bulbs that work within the headlight as normal, this is also fine.

As you can see I basically want to use the side indicators as sidelights instead.
Can anyone lead me in the right direction?

Many Thanks.
Jason.

Not really following what youre asking.... Do you want to make the Corner lights function as your turn signals??

If so, it should be pretty easy... take the signal wire from the turning lights and T a wire going to the power of your side lights... so they will flash with the indicator lights... dont forget to disconnect the current power wire to your side lights...

Thanks for your reply.

Almost what I ment but I want to do the opposite. I want the corner lights to function as White side lights.

so you want the indicator lights to just stay off and on like the corner lights and the corner lights to blink like the indicator lights would... gotcha...

you could test the wires of the indicator light and see which one has the on/off when the blinker is on... then just swap them..
