Okay so I ordered some fresh new Euro front turn signal lenses from Australia and when they arrived, they have some different connections than my stock ones. I had to do some splicing... I went as follows:
the lenses have both orange and clear lights, the clear acts as the parking lights and the turn signals, the orange only comes on when the front headlights are turned on with the clear ones on as well. So I figured that I would splice the orange one to the headlights power because that is how it turns on. Then I got the clear ones to light up separately and then also stay on when the orange ones are on and the headlights, but then I started having problems with my hazard lights staying on, and when I would flip my turn signal for the right side all my brake lights would flash. Its one big electrical nightmare. If anyone has any help its much appreciated.

the new lenses have wires in the following colors:

1 red/green
1 green/red
2 black wires
1 green wire
and one green/orange


the existing ones only had
1 red/green
1 green/red
1 black
1 green
and different connections so this is where my problem arrises...

I can't get a pic of the car... What i ended up doing after the rain stopped was reconnecting the old harness with the new lenses. it is my temporary fix until I can figure out the correct way to wire these babies up. I didn't think anyone would be able to help anyway. I don't know anyone else with these in the states...

I can't tell, but what color is your car. Looks great!!

It's a dark green. It's called Isle Mica Green. I believe its the same color code as Acura Integras. Of course mine looks way better. haha. Yeah I tried to get a pic of the new lenses, but it just won't work. I am on a shared computer. The old ones are the same ones everyone has, just the amber color, the new ones are these.

Link doesn't work. I'm not trying to bite off you, but your car looks how I want mine to. A deep green with epsilon style gold mesh wheels or panasports. Again, your car looks great man, sorry I can't help you with your problem though.

How did you order them from Australia? I've tried contacting some of the dealers with no success.

Those are not Euro turn signals. The Euro signals plug in with no modification, and have 3-terminal connectors same as the amber US signals. If you could be more specific as to the configuration of the connectors and which wires connect to which bulbs, it should be easy to figure out. The URL works but there is no picture of the connectors.

I have these on my S2. I've recently rewired them, but I'm not sure if I could be of assistance as I don't have much familiarity with the US spec wiring loom. PM me if you need photos or anything?

Australia is half way around the world, so call them when it's midnight here and they might answer.

Or they might see the caller ID and just all laugh, drink another beeya, and say G'day Mate and wink at their Sheila.

Cosmic is right, the Aussie turn signals My friend and I have needed no wire modification. They were bolt in (that's what my buddy told me anyways, I havent tried to install mine). the white lights turn on with the parking lights and the amber for turn signals. My friends are installed, mine are looking pretty on my shelf until I get a paint job for the car, then I will install them. Oh yeah, I do remember my Aussie buddy telling me that the series 2 lights were different than series 3. And of course the series 1 (79-80) is totally different looking.


here's a back shot of mine:


and my friends car with his installed:

Dude, make that **** work and send me pics!!!! DO EEEET. I would assume that you would need to split one of the wires to make them work since the white is driving and amber is parking/turn right? If you know what each light is supposed to do, then you can simply splice the wires in and make it work as its supposed to. Also may need to add a wire if it is set up weird. Good luck man!!!
