    I have 2002 Tacoma prerunner 3.4l. Is there a way to move the blinker to the corner lights on the headlights. I have read those corner lights are the parking lights but I have had my truck for about 2 years and have yet to see them on. But if there is a way to make the parking lights my blinkers and make the bumper light my fog lights?

    Adding blinker bulb to corner will be OK and legal as long as the blinker bulb is bright enough. 5W incandescent will not do it, 5W LED bulb (real 5W which s 400+ lm, not advertized BS) will be OK.

    Turning bumper lights into fog light is different story. The stock housing is plastic, will not survive the decent fog bulb. Also the stock housing will not provide the light pattern specific to the fog light (flat, wide-rectangular with clean cut-off). So it is possible, but you need to find good fog light housing that will fit into bumper holes. No, I don't know where to get it and if it even exists.:)

    Is there a projector retrofit for the bumper lights? I did the blinker mod but kept the lower lights as turns.
