Four tail light
I cant find any threads of people rewinding their turn signals to turn on with the other tail lights. I've looked all over the forum and on google. Anyone have pics of this. Not looking for led conversions.

You would rewire the rear turn signals so the G coupe would have that sporty four round tail light look of the 05+ G sedan, G37 and GTR.
Also, since the rear has four round light but only the two inner circles are on, the car at night looks significantly more narrow.
If you ever come across a G35 coupe and a G37 coupe drive together a night, you'll notice how much wider the G37 looks due strictly to the lights. During the day you may even confuse both of them as G35s.

A few have done it. Myself being one of them. I have still have a few sets I machined sitting at home for retrofitting. Its quite a project but definitely looks like a G37 or GTR once done.
No one just rewires the signals, its not that simple, we make custom bezels to mimic the bigger LED ring. I modeled the LED ring in Solidworks and scaled it down to 80% so it fit inside the signal hole after I dremeled the signal structure out.

You need to get a harness for a dual filiment bulb, and a set of 7443 bulbs ( if memory serves me on the bulbs correctly ).
Clip the old harness out and remove the bulb socket.
Wire the turn signal part of the bulb back in, and use the side socket for power to the 2nd filiment...
Total cost was less than $20 for 2 sockets and the bulbs.

WOW!!! Making friends everywhere you go Dude.
That look is exactly what I was asking about. Thank you for those pictures.
Question, are they always that bright or were your brake depressed?
Or maybe it was the camera.

I'd like to know if it's actually a ring or just some bulbs filling up the entire light too.
