Hyperblinkers are seriously annoying and pointless imo.

I did it. Not hard at all and it does look good. I'm not annoyed just yet...it's been months.

but things like this i wonder now days... since altezza lights and rice ect. is so pop in the main stream, if you go to a show are you gonna get down voted because it is so mainstream that is what the judges look for?

that sux! i guess ill just be down voted.

true!,
but i didnt use our stock flasher to create hyperblinkers, or replace the lights, i have another way and it works greeeeeat, if ur interested let me know

Don't know what he did, but you can always take your 7443 combo parking light and signal bulbs which has 4 metal connections and bend 2 of the connections back so you're left with 2. When I did this it resulted in no parking light and only signals at a hyberblinker rate. At least this is what I remember doing before just getting led's, it's been awhile so I don't remember which connections I bent. Just get a test bulb and try it...

pointless really!

maybe if you could get only your hazards to blink fast that would be tight.

well the way i did it, you can adjust them.... so u can make it go normal, or lil fast , fast, faster, fast fast, so u could adjust them for the HAZARDS.

if you do it the way i did... then the hazards will blink fast as well... the same speed as the signals

here is the old thread... but the pics are gone
http://7thgencivic.com/forums/showth...y+hyperblinker

basically what you do is
1. take out the signal relay under the steering wheel (the black box near all the fuses)
2. open the relay up
3. unsolder the "R1" resistor (it has "133" on it to indicate 133k ohms which is the stock value, its also the smallest one)
4. solder some short wires to the ends of where the resistor was connected
5. soldier the resistor to the wires
6. you don't need the plastic cover anymore, it shouldn't fit anymore so just leave it off
7. plug the relay back in, the wires will be hanging depending on how long you cut them...

i put 45k ohm from radio shack (.99 cents for a pack of 5)... this comes out to about 6x fast.... rule of thumb is, the lower the resistance the faster it will blink...

theoretically, if you put a resistor higher than 133k (like maybe 150k ohms), it should blink slower ... but i've never tried so i'm not sure if it'll work...

i plan on adding another 45k in series to slow it down a bit and maybe make it around 2-3x faster than stock...

i did this to my cousin's 03 si as well... but we were short of resistors so i just used a pair of 22k ohms in series that i had laying around in my room (i used them to increase the voltage of my processor for overclocking, but thats off topic lolz...)

so pretty much you can experiment with different value resistors and see how fast or slow you want it...
