5th gen front bumper light conversion
 
Yes, I already searched this question up, but did not find what I needed. I want my front bumper lights (turn signals) to stay on and I want to put cool white LEDs in them, along with a clear lens. I read that I would have to do some rewiring to get the bumper lights to stay on at the same time as my headlights. How exactly do I go about doing that?

I'm guessing you would have to wire them to the corner lights. I have heard if you just splice the power wires together, IE the power wire from the corner lens is going to corner lens and the turn signal, and the turn signal power is still going to the turn signal as well, then they will stay on and still blink when the turn signal is applied. I would be worried about burning parts out doing this though.

I thought I have seen where people get the clear housings drill another hole into them and add an additional clear bulb to the housing.

Then the blinker stays the same and the other bulb is wired to be on whenever the car is on.

Well my goal is to not mess up my light wiring lol. I don't mind doing some wiring as long as it's not gonna mess anything else up.

I think the better solution is to get clear depo lights (corner lights) and wire them up to be on with the car, much easier to do and will likely look better. IMO

Well I guess that would be the safer route. I'm planning on buying these headlights: SPYDERŪ - Honda Accord 1994-1997 Chrome CCFL Halo Projector Headlights
They have clear lenses so they would go better with my HID kit I have lol.

those are both the same ones.
I bought a set of them used 2 years ago for $40
I ran a bead of silicone around mine before I installed them, not sure if it did anything or not but they are still 100% sealed and do not have any moisture in them.
