EK markers ARE Inspire markers.

Anyhow, get an NC relay, wire the power to the parking lights, then the signal input to the turn signal. When the turn signal comes through, it'll open the circuit, which means it'll turn off the bulb.

Looks shit.

Your car is so nice.

If you get some Inspired tails, slightly tint the turn signals, and tint the windows about 35% the exterior will look sick as fuck! Then if you get the air ride like you were talking about then it will be GAME OVER!

Actually, screw the relay. Let's let the bulb ground out:

Tap one wire to the parking light's positive, then one to the turn signal's positive.

If only the rears had a tad higher offset or a lower disk, they'd be perfect!

~Cheers~

P.S. Can you explain why one set of holes was filled in while the other set wasn't?

I'm not a fan of the color or the rims, but somehow the car looks fly as hell.

^ Electricity is electricity, haha. In a positively-switched car (most if not all Japanese), that's how it'd be done.

Nice work man I love your headlights with the black chrome. How much did you pay for them. And yes why is only one set of holes filled?

He hasn't been on here for years, but to answer your question that is the OEM 3.2TL bumper... the same one I have on my car and a spare one in my backyard right now.
