Making turn signals runing lights

Hey i know everyone on this board hates me but this is my current project and i would like to see someones approval if you will on my switch set up i am going to try to use.

Now i replaced every possible exterior interior light with blue LEDs and it cost me 7 bucks a pop, well the brake lights were 13 i think but they are red.

Well anyways for some strange reason i want to make my turn signals stay on together and still be able to control them my orignal turn signal harness is ****ed anyways so yea i just wanted to see if this looks decent and ill be done with it tom if i have no wiring problems.

Is this what your looking for? They are on with the parking lights, and still blink?
It's much easier than the rats nest you got there.

I followed the VQpower write-up, I then also got sockets from a Civic and got my corner lights to blink (both lights are always on, and blink with the tun signal). It's been a long time since i've messed with it, but i've had no problems.

not really, you need an 1157 dual filament socket. go to a junkyard and cut some off a civic. I then soldered wires to the socket and filled w/silicone
