Does anyone have a write up on moving the front turn signals to the stock fog light location?

Only with crayons and really wide markers, that of course are washable :goink:
It's really easy Scout. Whatever lights you are going to use is what is going to determine your mounting bracket for the light in the fog light housing hole. The lights I used have a rear stud mount with the wires for the lights coming out the post for the stud on the rear of the light. so fabbing up a "u" style bracket was a breeze to mount the lights in the holes. If you want your lights to be markers and turns they must be 3 wire. I can't tell you what the color code is because I just used my circuit tester to determine the wires from the harness for the side marker and front turn/marker light. I did use the side marker harness (194 bulb) for my LED side markers I put into my flares, that's just 2 wire, hot and ground. The front is where I spliced in a 3 wire harness for my front LED marker/turns. Off my light I can tell you red is the turn signal, black is the marker and white is the ground, what the colors are from the factory harness I don't know(I have them shrink wrapped and taped neatly in conduit). Like I said I used my circuit tester but if ya know electrical it is very easy. I may be able to get Tom to snap and post some pics with my grille off for ya when I get over to his place, my regular pc is still getting fixed. :JEEPIN:

Thanks for the reply. I figured it was easy and was thinking about using the JK turn signals. Im not sure if its a perfect fit but they look close. If you do add a picture that would be great. Also what type of light are you running and where could I find it? Thanks.

I picked up the front LED's at harrisonspecialties.com and I did forget to mention ya have to wire in a resistor for the front turns so ya don't have a fast flash issue. I picked the resistors up at v-leds.com . I also looked at the JK's because where I used to work I had them on carhaulers just about everyday and I don't remember exactly why I didn't use them but I am sure fitment was the issue. I see what I can do about twisting Tom's arm to snap a pic or two and get them to ya. :JEEPIN:

Scout, you still at Carson, if so, just stop by Marty's and look at my wires on the front for the color matching, they are all still exposed.
