Could someone post the tutorial on how to rewire the turn signals so that they give off the maximum light?

Check this thread http://www.tgc-forums.com/phpBB2/viewtopic...ighlight=reelax ('http://www.tgc-forums.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=12&highlight=reelax')

There should be 3 scanned pages of a tutorial reelax did on it once, and you can buy the spdt relays from crutchfield.com

the tutorial said the rewire would make it as bright as the headlights and you won't see it blink...but it still blinks right? so we don't really need the relay switch right?

Thanks

The relay is what makes you able to see it blink, the relay turns off the bright filament when power goes to the dim one, so basically after the mod when you signal the dim and bright take turns blinking on and off, and when your not signaling, just the bright is on. Its worth getting the relays, they are only like $8 each or something, its a great looking mod for less than $20 in parts.

If you do it without the relay, the bright will always be on, the dim will still blink when you signal, but you wont be able to see if over the light from the bright filament always staying on.

just an FYI, that maxima rewire won't work as well since the way they show to wire, you will completely lose the signal in the corner. the maximas have a seperate signal / marker, so it's ok for them to lose their signal in the corner... they still have a marker to blink. the 8Gs only front signal is the corner.

Could someone who has done the rewire post a picture so that I can see where they placed the relay
