Ok I have read alot of old projector posts. One post brought up the subject of wiring the turn/parking accent light in the low beam projectors, but nothing helpful.

I decided to make the light a parking light and to make the bulb amber. Coincidently, the existing side parking light plug seems like it would fit into the projector accent light plug-in(sort of). The stock turn signal plug has a plastic casing around the connector and if it is "removed" I am pretty sure it would fit. Anyways, my plan is to get a hold of that stck parking signal connector, via toyota or junkyard, cut the plastic I need to cut...etc.

Is there an easier way of doing this? For instance, is their a plug I can get from Autozone/pepboys that would fit? I was close to just sotering two wires into the two metal prongs inside the accent light plug, but I thought twice. I would appreciate any direction on this.

If there is a previous "helpful" post, can someone direct me to it. And I do apologize if a previous post exists, I too get a little annoyed when people do not use the search toolbar... I tried though

Thanks guys/gals

*grins* honestly what I did was I took the connectors for the fog lights I removed from my car which where a too wide b too long c too high. However the connectors where correct inside... So I took a dremel tool and made some modifications. At that point I soldered the end to one end of a wire that then went to the other set I modified and from there I had soldered another set of wires going down to the clear corners where i used a plastic connector with a metal spade I guess you would say that cuts into the wires on the corner markers and gives juice to the two lights. Not the correct way... but hell it worked.
