Corvette style front markers finally wired [*pics*]

Well, just as topic says. It turned out so good I had to snap some pics right away, so pardon me for quality, as it was already getting dark.

I will update my cardomain soon, as some may note, my car does not look it did before the summer..... yes hard-working and fruitful summer

Is this a matter of switching the signal harness with the sidemarker harness?

Nope not really. I have LED board inside turning signal housing which I used before only as turning signal and just recently figured out I can have LEDs a little dimmer and have them on all the time, hense - markers...
Power goes from cigarette lighter to the switch I located on the left panel next to the foot, then through firewall to the fuse and from fuse wire goes to both side markers. Kinda no brainer but I am still a newb when it comes to wiring...

About side markers next to turning signals, I still did not figure out how to fit LED board in there, not much space, I could put 194 in there but light output may look odd. Plus I like it the way it is coupled with corner lights, which have LEDs as well.

Ludacris: Yes car was painted Sheer Silver. I was tossing with the idea painting it myself and Glad I didn't, rims gave me enough trouble, but came out good.

Just a question:

I just install my DC's today. Do most people just switch the wires? Would it be better, cuz when you do the turn signals, to have the light on the side is more visible anyways, isnt it?

Oh by the way, at first I forgot to plug the signal wire back in the new DC's... and I had a fast signal for the rear... at first I thought I messed something up... haha

In terms of switching wires, yes you can do it, about visibility, I don't think so, if you look up front.

He didn't just do the rewiring...he put led's in there in that rectangle pattern. I think some people are mistaken.
