Side Marker Rewire

http://www.5thgenmaximas.com/clearrewire.html

Is this strictly for the front markers or can the rear ones be done as well? I somewhat confused on how they operate when your headlights are on and off?

"What this does when the headlights are off, they both blink with the blinkers at the same time, when the lights are on, they both blink separate from each other."

So my lights are off I have my left turn signal on. The front left marker will blink with the turn signal but the right one will as well?

Lights on they only blink according to which way you have your signal?

The front side markers are on when the headlights are on, and blink when the turn signal is engaged. It could be adapted to make the rear side markers blink as well, but I am not sure any other cars have the rear sides blink. Try it and see how it looks.

that means when your headlights are off the left turn signal will blink with the left side markers

I'll check out the rear side marker rewire.

I'm still a lil confused about this:

"What this does when the headlights are off, they both blink with the blinkers at the same time, when the lights are on, they both blink separate from each other."

So when the lights are on the side marker and signal alternate?

Correct.
Doesn't that look a lil weird with the alternating blinking?

And is it legal to have clear hyper white side markers act as signals (I'm still using my stock front yellow signals) especially with this alternating?

Nope, doesn't look weird at all IMO.

Not sure what the law is in your area so
