You would have to change the sockets out to 3 wire sockets.

Sounds good, maybe there is a way to add that additional wire to the rear turns and use them instead of changing out to front turns. Thanks for your help.  :)

There's an extra wire in the front signals as compared to the rear.  That's for the running light part.  Just plug the turn signal wire into the existing wire in the rear then tap into the running light wire (for the rear tail light) with the other wire.

What do you mean by run the wires? Run them and tap into your front signal lights?
Good advice on changing out the lenses. Thanks

It's simple, effective, and inexpensive.

One important point though.....most states only allow red rear lights, so be sure to switch out the amber lenses for red ones.  They come up on Ebay all the time.  (Or clear lenses with red bulbs)

That's a great piece of advice PC.

Get another pair of front turn signals and mount them on the rear then run the wires.  Simplest way I know, and it uses all factory parts that can be bought cheap at any good wrecking yard.

What is the most effective way to wire the rear turn signals so they will be running lights and turn signals?
