Sidemarker - basic question
This may seem like an extremely basic question: Do the side markers blink with the turn signal?
I have only had my 911 for a couple of weeks and one of the first mods I put on to match the seal grey paint were the clear side markers. Tonight I was checking the lights and was surprised that there did not seem to be any blinkers on the side of the car like there were on my previous BMWs, and any other european car I can think of (Mercedes, Audi, VW, ect...) Mind you my car was in the garage with the key turned one click, but all the side markers did were light when the headlights, and parking lights were on.

They only Blink in Europe...Here in the US they stay on with the parking lights. There is a mod you can do to make it blink...

haha, I'm no where near the level of Kevin yet
No, I haven't actually done the Blinking side marker yet. I've been wanting to, but I always forget. The cold weather here in the Bay Area makes me Lazy...
Hey is anyone near Santa Monica? I'll be there tomorrow night.

I know Arling is pretty close to Santa Monica. Don't know how available everyone is in the middle of the week especially with all this rain. You had to bring your weather with you huh? hehe

I did this on my prev 996. Be aware that with this mod , they blink in sync with the other turn signals when the headlights are OFF, but alternate when the headlights are ON.
