DIY: side marker blinker mod
#31
i just tried this mod on my 03 g35 sedan. the wires are green on the pass side and on the drivers side for the "hot blinker" i spliced it to the ground on the side marker and got bad results. the side marker dimmed to about a quarter of the brightness and did flash when the turn signal was on but it was too dim...

Yes, you can do that. But might want to get some feedback on where you install the LED's because most talk trash about it looking rice or something.

Did you tap the black side marker wire into the green/white wire in the main headlight harness. It should be about 7 or so wires in a tight bundle. This bundle goes to the back of the turn signal. There is also a green and a black wire that goes to the HID bulb (the top light) and a green/yellow wire that goes to the bottom light . Do not tap into the last two mentioned. You'll tap into the purple wire on the passenger side.

sooo all i need to do is cut the hot wire for my side marker light and hook it up to my city light's hot wire? does my side marker need to share the same ground wire as the city light? lastly, did you need to up the fuse for your city lights? or are they already sharing the same fuse? thnx

ok sry, just re-read teh DIY again and i get how to do the setup buuut... but im still confused lol i just dont understand how connecting a negative to a separate positive will complete teh circut! how the heck is the side marker getting its ground?! unless Nissan made the black wire hot and the red wire ground lol... did they?

so i followed the steps for the diy guide with my 04 6mt coupe...but my sidemarkers only turn on when i switch off my lights and turn signal or push hazard. they dont stay on when my headlights are on or dont flash(or alternate in this case) when i signal my intent. i tested this with lights on, auto, and off. anyone else run into this problem or know how to fix???
