Ahh...my post disappeared! Here it is again. Just installed sidemarkers and tapped into the red turn signal wire. They should be staying on with parking lights AND flashing with turn signals. Now they just stay on and don't work with the signals. What should I do? The bulbs are 194 (I think single filament if that matters). APC brand, but they look nice.

Rep Power: 788 Okay I've searching around and I guess it's the bulb. Do they make dual filament 194 bulbs or equivalent? They're the small ones like for the front parking lights.

Rep Power: 788 Thanks, but I wanted a clear one rather than amber so it matches the headlights. I'll just leave it so they stay on for now. Thanks for looking.

Rep Power: 788 Now I'm wondering if I put the markers on the right way. Does that bump on one side go to the back or front?

Bump is facing front. i think he put it on wrong side.
My sidemarker's bump is facing rear

Rep Power: 788 So civicvtec1ps, the bulb you posted above for the side marker comes on with the lights AND flashes with the signal?
