OK. You know how American cars have their front side lights in with their indicators... and when they indicate, the sidelight flashes brighter?

Well, I saw a British car the other day with this kind of configuration and it looked really effective. I really like it.

I was wondering what it would take to do this to my car, and what I came up with was a dual filament bulb. Wired up correctly I think it would work.

The only problem is is I cant seem to find a holder that would hold on eon its own. The other way I thought of was to simple drill a hole in the back of the indicator housing and put the sidelight from the headlight in there... But I think the two bulbs in there would obscure the light from eachother and make the light pattern uneven.

So my request was for someone to help me locate an auxiliary dual filament bulb housing please :) If you know where I could find one, this would be muchos helpful. Thank you, Mike

You may want to check the legality of doing this mod.

why go dual filament? You'd have to find one that fits the same slot as the original wiring.
Why not simply get a side light bulb holder (which are very small and easy to find a space for), put a low wattage bulb in and wire to the side light circuit.
