I'm looking for a diagram for the 92-94 legacy corner lights. I wanna wired the EDM city lights into them, and i dont want to cut anything w/o a diagram. Or if anyone has a diagram of how they did it that would be awesome too.

Cheers,
Tony

Just tap the power line from the corner light and have the city light come on with them. Simple I guess.

i know it is, but i never like to do electrical w/o a diagram. The last thing i wanna do is short something out.

Well, it's not quite that simple, you need to know which wire is the turn signal and which is the marker light. No access to schematics right now, sorry... If you have a Haynes manual it's got a reasonably correct set of wiring diagrams, otherwise maybe Josh has them up on his site.

Oh, there was a member offering to ship a copy of the alldata for our cars the other day. Search for it.

One more question...
If i were to use a 5008 LED bulb, would i need to add a resistor? The bulb is 12v so i guess i dont?
Just need conformation. Thanks in advance.

Tony, can you post the wiring info when you source it AND pics of the LED used as the bulb for that light. I'm intrigued by the idea of using LEDs on my car. Already have some on my side marker lights. Thanks man!

Well, this for the "city lights" on my EDM headlights i just got. I was just curious about it really. I think it would look kinda neat.

Oh...Well, i'm gonna order my LED lights now. I just finished wiring up the city lights and they look bitchn'. When you used the LED in your side marker lights, did you use a resistor?

Nope just plug and play. You need to get an LED with lots of nodes on it so the light spreads out.
