Did you splice them straight into the turn signal wire without using a resistor? Or did you use a resistor? If so, what size resistor did you go with?

I was thinking about only having the side marker light with the turn signal, but I wanted to check out both ways before I made a decision.

Way too much work to figure out how they might look... I wired mine to light with the turns only, how God intended them to be. If you do it this way, there is no need for any resistors.

The last time I checked, it was RICERS that were first to make them light up at all times... I hate the look.

Thanks for the info. I am going to take your advise and wire the side markers to run off the turn signals only.

just wire them right into the turnsignal. no resistors no nothing.
