extra relay with control circuit hooked inline with the reverse light circuit and the switched citcuit running directly to signal bulbs. I will draw it if I get a chance. And because i was first to help i am stealing the idea.

If you pay for the lawyers, I'll do all the design work. And the way I am describing it you would still maintain full use of your turn signals and have everything run safely through relays. Its a recurring thing I see with people upgrading electrical anything. (like people who have problems with HIDs) put the s*** on a relay and save yourself an electrical fire, I learned the hard way.

Ok here is what I came up with, you need to confirm that the existing system is actually ground switched through the relay, most cars have ground switched systems but just make sure, if you don't know how, you may have to wait till I get time to look at the manual. THE LEGEND DIDN'T COME OUT RIGHT, THE NEW WIRES ARE DASHED
