Is there a bulb socket that can accept a bulb with two filaments (one for marker and one for turn signal?) that will fit in the front side marker assembly?
I remote-start my car from waaaaayyyyyy off to the side, my parking stall doesn't allow me to see my car from the front so I have no way to confirm that it has responded to my key-fob inputs.
I'd like to have my side markers offer this feature.

I'll try to restate it.
My side markers in my wheel wells light up with the headlights as running lights. I'd like them to also have a turn signal built into them.
Is there a socket that will fit in the sidemarker with three wires rather than two that can accommodate a bulb with two filaments rather than one?
I can wire the second filament to my front turn signals and then be able to see my turn signals acknowledge by remote start command.
I can see the side of my car from inside my workplace, I can't see the front or rear, so I can't saee the turn signals on either the front or on the rear.

i believe that some of the aftermarket sidemarkers have this functionality built in, and all you have to do is tap into your existing turn signal wire for functionality. i posted one style, but there are several on amazon and ebay to fit your style.

I never realized they don't blink with our blinkers until I read this. Disappointing!

I currently have the suma performance sidemarkers that are switchback. I just tapped into the turn signal wire.

Just curious on how you tapped into your turn signal wire?
