I'm out. I just realized that I'm planning on tying in my signals to my ARB signals shortly so I don't need 3 sets of turn signals in the front.

Great idea though. Thanks for putting it together.

someone else can have my spot.

Thanks!!
Mike

There's been a couple threads on either swapping the corner and marker lights or cutting up the harnesses to provide multiple functions.

I'm not really a fan of hacking up a perfectly good harness, so I contacted Gary over at Innovative Wiring to see what he could do. I had previously purchased his headlight adapter harness (which converts the 9005/9006 to a H1/H4 setup) and been extremely impressed with the quality.

The idea behind it is to have a plug and play harness that converts the existing 1156 bulbs (single function, on/off) to 1157 bulbs (dual function, on/flash/off). To get an idea of what's involved, you can take a look at the MoGas Mod, which is the same idea but splicing donor harnesses in rather than running an adapter.

To explain it a different way....

Input:
1156: Marker
1156: Turn signal

Output:
1157: Low: Marker High: Turn
1157: Low: Marker High: Turn

So basically you have two inputs and two outputs. The two inputs are two separate functions, the two outputs are running to dual purpose bulbs. So instead of discrete functions in the two light housings, you have combination lights in both.


The goal of this mod is to accomplish several things:

• Both the corner (turn signal) and front (marker light) are converted to combination turn/marker lights.
• The lights do not stop acting as marker lights when the turn signal is turned on.
• Everything is plug and play using a high quality harness (easily reverted). No wires to cut or splice

So far, Gary doesn't think there will be a problem doing this.

So...any interest?

I'm in for one. Sounds like a great setup.

 

[Itchy Sides]

I'm in for a triple, depending on price, please.

Thanks!

 

[KimoSabe]

confirm me for one set

Ebag333,
Any updates?

 

[Dutchy]

This went from every day updates to noting for 11 days when he got the first test harness in. What happened? Did he blow up his 80 testing the harness?

 

[SUUEEET]

I hope everything is ok. Odd to not hear from Ebag on the forum for awhile.

X2..hope all is well.....

I sent a note to Innovative Wiring to see if they have heard from Ebag. I received the following auto reply

Thanks for following up, I hope everything is ok.

 

[Dutchy]

Well he should be ok... looking at his statistics

Thing is.. when you were as active as he was in teh beginning and then just dissapear without leaving the shortest notice like "really busy at the moment or gotta solve some personal problems first" or something like that then at least we know what the status is and people will be more understanding.

Just my 2 cents

Harness Update:

I exchanged emails with Gary and he has not heard from Ebagg in a while either. He is going to send me a set to test out. I should have them sometime this week.

More to come

What's the word on this?

 

[jojobeed]

This group buy went cold fast. Any information would be helpful, but I am sure if someone knew what was going on they would let us know.

If someone new is in contact with Gary, they should probably adopt the list and confirm with each member their order. I hope this is, in fact still proceeding.

Ebagg's absence is quite unsettling.

Still no word from Ebagg...I do hope he is OK..

I received a sample of the harness yesterday from Gary and did the initial test fit.

Gary is reworking the connections inorder to facilitate the "plug and play" design we all want.

Both the Marker Light and the Indicator have plugs close to each sockets. Gary is looking into using these plugs as a possible solution.

Once I work out the final design with Gary I will update the list above and proceed from there.

Pictures coming soon

Thank you all for your patience
