64762, How do you get or make hyper blinkers for our car??
Posted by Phanatik, Jan-09-04 10:03 AM

Would you have to buy them or somehow make them by rewiring the blinkers. I've done it on another car by just buying a little plug and replacing the original one. That was very easy but I haven't seen anywhere that sold the plug for the eclipse. Please let me know, thanks in advance.

hyper blinkers? like blinkers that blink really fast?
if that's what you want jsut swap out your stock blinker bulbs for some LED ones

www.autolumination.com

ours are like 1156 or 1157 or something... the dual filament one.

when you use LED bulbs w/ the stock flasher the lower impedance of the LED bulbs (as compared to the incandescant bulbs) causes the blinkers to flash faster. mine do that and it's kinda cool :P

then you can tell people that you've modified your car so much that even your blinkers go faster. performance blinkers!

*edit* if you don't wanna buy bulbs i think you can prolly replace the flasher.. dunno what kinda diff speeds or types they come in though...

the led ones i got didn't really seem any brighter. there was even less light in the corner of the blinker too. i checked cause i left the stock bulb in one side and the led in the other and turned the hazards on to see the difference

yea the LED's are actually a little dimmer than stock. a lot of it's b/c of the way the light gets dipsersed from LED's though. the LED bulb gives more of a directed beam whereas the incadescant bulbs just give off light in all directions (which gets reflected and fills up the entire blinker housing). mine are a little hard to see during the day time. they're alright at nite though. but then again my HIDs make all the other lights on my car seem very dim :P
