Hi to all
Some days ago, I posted what end up in my S10 the new turning lights in the "what you did to your Tenere today!!!??" thread and was a request to post a new "how to" thread, so here I am!!
I can tell you in advance that I will share in wording the best I can in my second language since I did not take care of taking pictures as I did the modification.
This is what was the end work done;
Front turning light working with DRL
Rear truning light
Rear emergency light. The stop light flashes 3 times and then stays solid, the main (center) stop light works normal! I will post a video later, did not take a video of it.
Front emergency light with DRL
Very inexpensive, some work is needed to be done but I like the way it looks in my 2013!!
These are the lights kind I used!

The turn signal/hazard relay:

Of course, doing this installation will require some electrical and mechanical skills for the modifications to be done to the OEM harness, light cases.
Note; I’m sure that many questions will come and I will try to explain in the best manner how or what will be needed. Ask questions if it is not clear and/or need additional detail.
Summary;
- will require to remove and disassembly the original turning lights (23P-83310-00 Fr flasher light assembly and 23P-83340-00 for the rear)
to make some adapters to allocate the new light, between rubber base and new lights.
- rework the rubber base used in the original directional light cases, to assure the new light case assembly can be allocated and supported.
- have the electrical wire diagram for cable identifications and components (like relay) will help you a lot for wires identification and location, to do proper connections, there will be to link to energy for having the DRL working and also for the brake lighting too.
- tools and material needed, cutting pliers, welding and electrical wire and connectors, electrical tape, nylon straps, wrenches, screwdrivers among other.
- will require to replace the "turn signal/hazard relay" to support led lighting, with the original one will hyper-flash, it will require an electrical adapter since the connections will not match
- patience and will to have a great work done at the end.
What I like the must of the new lights is that it has DRL for the front, has 3-time flashes then solid for stop light and for directional it has sequential.
The total $ spent probably will not get to $50.00 usd when DIY, labor time took me about 4 hrs.
If any additional information is required and or detail please let me know and I will try to do my best.
Great day to all!
