Default HELP: Previous Post Confusion

hey everyone - i have smoked diffusers and a chromed bulb set from ricks. this set up turned out perfectly and looks exactly like what i was hoping for: during the day. at night however, the small 194 bulb in the bottom corner of the light assembly isn't bright enough to illuminate the darkened diffuser. i turned on the hazards, and noted that the diffusers light up perfectly, when both the small 194 bulb and the larger turn signal bulb in the upper corner of the light assembly work together. accordingly, i would like to rewire the lights so this works all the time, and read some posts about it, but am confused because many of the posts are actually talking about the side markers, i believe. so ...

HERE IS WHAT I WANT: CAN ANYONE TELL ME HOW???

when i turn the light stick one click or more, i want BOTH the small bulb and the large bulb in the corners of my headlights to light up, and when i turn on my turn signal, i want at least one of the those two bulbs (or both of them) to signal. i don't care what the side markers do, as long as they still signal. they can be on when the lights are on, or off like they are stock. either is fine.

help or direction to a previous post i failed to find? THANKS!

First thing I would try would be LED bulbs. Just me.

Usually the are A LOT brighter and give off less heat.


Second. (This needs approval from someone before I would try it.)

On the Element Owners Club, there was a write up - on how to make the side markers blink.
and All you do is jump some wires. Click here to see the HOW TO Thread <- To better illustrate what Im referring to.

So if you got a Helms and confirmed the wiring - you, in theory, could do the same......maybe.

I know its kinda vague, but it's a start.

Brighter LED bulbs will solve your problem. No need to be hacking up the stock harness.
