Changing Parkers To Indicators

[buzz350]

Hey all, i was just wondering if its possible to change the parkers on the r33 headlights into indicators?

has anyone done it before or tryed as i have a 400r front bumper but it had foglights instead of indicators in the bumper, so now that im respraying it, im wondering weather i can change the parkers over, as its impossible to source/find some gtr front indicators in adelaide!

I assume its more than likely just cut some wires and put them together solder and change the bulbs, but wondering if its been done/is it effective?

Cheers

Aaron.

Hey mate,

i done it on my 33 GTR it was a while ago but im pretty sure the plug on the indicators plugs straight into the back of the headlights where your parkers go.

i deffinetly didn't cut any wires or anything. Not sure if a GTS-t is the same but if it is its an easy job

Hey mate! definately do-able, I have that setup on my r33 series 1. I too had the 400r fb with the indicators at the front but i thort it looked s**t, so moved them up to the parkers and installed angel eyes over the hi beam headlights as my parker lights, Looked the tits until the bals blew up!

Anyway i cut and soldered the wires to make it work. You will also need to get an orange globe otherwise your indicator is white. I suggest an led type would give you the best light. Also if the indicator is flashing to fast, i think it means you need a high watt globe.

I have heard that its meant to be illegal but i have had no issues in 5yrs!

Did this with mine back in 2003 and never had any problems with the police

thanks guys for all the replys, had a quick look and its sad to say not the same plug but for the extra half hour cutting and redoing the wires is a small price to pay.

thanks all for the help and what youve done (and what the police havent done)

now the all important Q of what do i put where the indicators should be in the bumper ........

i did it a few years back and haven't looked back

cut the wires and re-threaded them to the parkers, then just used some slip on orange doovalackies over plain globes

What does everyone use for parkers when they do this? Or just not fit any?

Any pics of the angel eyes in the hi beam headlights?

Where is everyone sourcing high wattage globes to slow the flash rate down when doing this?
