If I wanted to have my stock sidemarkers flash with the turn signals, would I change the wiring as shown below? I was thinking I could just connect vampire taps to the old ground wires of the sidemarkers and have them bite into the turn signal wires.

Do the turn signal lamps turn on with the headlights or not? I have the LED headlights so it's different for me.

If the turn signals do not turn on with the headlights and you were to re-wire your side markers like above, the side markers would only light up with the turn signal.

Ah, good point, didn't think of that. I would need constant power from somewhere else. Screw it, I'll just get upgraded side markers lol.
