The other wire for the signal is a ground wire for the socket. The OE signals are on those "rubber ducky" mounts your tag cover is prolly grounded, you may have issues with the flasher if your turn lights are L.E.D.s also pay close attention to which wire is which led's don't light up if connected backwards Waldo How a bout a Pic when done.. it sounds KEWL |

Yes I have issues. They are L.E.D.s. They will lite up but not flash! |

I think I have seen the lights you are using. If yo have onlly one wire the body must be a ground. I would attach a wire to the metal body of the light and back to the ground (the second wire your original lights had hooked up). Also you will need to install a load balancer to get the lights to blink at a normal rate again. (they will be fast) |
