Looking for a way to rewire Clearance Lights next to blinker...Help?

I would like to Make it so The light that is right next to the front blinker bumper light, the one that lights up as soon as you turn the clearance lights on. I would like to make it so that light doesnt stay lit on a constant basis, but rather that it blinks alternatingly when you turn the blinker on...SO basically those lights would be off, until you turn the blinker on, and then it would be, front lights blink, then side lights blink alternatingly so it produced a back and forth kind of effect... I dont really know how to explain it any better, i hope SOMEONE knows what I'm talking about! lol

EDIT: another way to say it is i want to make the sidemarkers basically a second blinker, i want it to stay off until i turn the blinker on, and then I want it to blink when the Blinker turns off, so when i hit the blinker it will go blinker, sidemarker, blinker, sidemarker and so on

I was thinking i could do this by wiring the sidemarker up just like the blinker but, maybe reverse the relay or something? I dunno im not that experienced with wiring...

I'm not sure if you can do that. All you can do is just do the blinker rewire. The lights alternate when any of your lights are on but flash at the same time if no other lights are on...

The whole point of this is that I want the sidecorner to not be on, but to still have a function... I dont like That light...It just makes the max over lit...fog lights and headlights are enough thanks

Well, after Having a Nice Chat with Nadir, I'm Pretty sure this would take a LOT of wiring, so i'm left with Two options...Turn the sidecorner into a regular blinker and have it off normally and then blink with the Normal blinker... OR have that light still stay on when i turn my lights on and when i turn the blinker on, have it alternate with the blinker

there is definitly a re-wire post in the FAQ's about this...

makes the car look like an Integra at night with the alternating effect.

how about you just leave it the way it is and don't bother with it?? this just causes more complication down the line.
