Default JDM sidemarkers

Hey, I just got my jdm sidemarkers in, but I'm curious, in japan were they hooked up to the parking lights AND the turn signals, or just the turn signals? thanks in advance

cheers

jon

Depends...is it a single or a dual filament bulb in there? If single, then it's wired to the turn signal. If dual, then it's wired to both.

single, so just blinker?

they're the factory sidemarkers

just wondered if because they're single filament they stayed on with parking lights at normal intensity and then started blinking with the blinkers.

Not sure how that would be wired, but I like the idea.

You can wire them to whatever you want, but as OEM, they would be plugged into your blinkers.

When I finally get around to installing some in mine (damn I'm lazy) I'll put dual filament bulbs in them like I described. I like it that way. They'll function just like the corner lights do.
