Funny you should mention this. Side marker is also problematic. I can get LED T5 to work for front side marker if I am using conventional turn signal bulb. However, with LED turn signal, I can't get LED side marker to work.
For now, I am running conventional front turn signal and side markers up front. I have side tracked to 200 amp alternator project at the moment.
Do you have any wisdom to share for front turn signal LED mod?

Wisdom? It won't work.. LOL. I know based on the 1990 FSM, the side marker bulbs run voltages both directions, something LEDs don't do. I have a 1996 FSM I need to check, as I have heard they changed the wiring of the bulbs, but not confirmed.

I built Goldcylon 3 sets of Side marker LED Conversions.. plugs into the harness then into the T5 bulb, so he is running LEDs in the front of the car with no issues.

With the circuits I made GC, they are low current draw with LED but should work with normal lamps (but not recommended).
