I will take more pics this evening when I get home and post them. Yeah I was a little scared about destroying the originals but one of mine had a crack on the orange lense so I figured what the hell. But honestly getting the light out of the bumper was probably the biggest headache. On the cracked one I didnt even bother using a heat gun but actually just carfully broke the damaged lense of the housing using pliars.

Thanks for shrinking the pic and attaching it, as evident im not to good with these. My SC is a 93 and thanks I like how it looks and the white also. It took me forever to find a pearl white with low mileage.

Taka,
Sorry I missed your question
It was real simple I just tapped into the wires for the parking light that goes next to the headlights, then extended the wires down and attached them to the cornering lights. I just cut about 4 inches above the harness on the cornering lights. Its also easy to figure which wires go together since the each set have a black striped wire for the neg.
Sorry I missed your question
Is it that simple?? :P Do I need any relay or anything to wire with? any problem at all?

It was pretty easy. The hardest part was getting the orange lenses off without damaging the housing. I used a heat gun and slowly seperated the lense from the housing. Then using the housing as a guide I cut out the new lense out of the plastic sheet with the dremel and put the whole thing together with clear silicone. The edges dont look to hot but since it inserts into the bumper and the area where the lense and housing are put together is not visible you cant tell.

Thanks SCream... I am going to tackle this lil' project
. I am going to contact "Banking" to see if I can buy the side lights off of his wrecked SC that he is parting out.. I will like to have an extra set in case I mess them up or the are cheesy looking in the flesh...
They look damn good on the monitor!!! I must give you props on this mod.
If anyone need parts contact "Banking", he has a SC400(I think it is a 92' - 96 model)...

Could you take a few more pics in the day? Upclose at all angles in the light?
Also on the cornering light conversion to "fog lights" did you use the 'Hyper white' 1156 or did you change out the entire bulb socket? There was an old thread with a member putting H3(I think) type of bulbs in the cornering light housing. I forgot how he angle them in there to keep out condensation...

Wow, that is nice. Please post pics, I'd love to see others with this mod. I am making a list of stuff for when it gets warm again (or I start heating the garage).
