Blinker Controller Install

The blinker controller has actually been in the car for at least a month now but I'm just now getting around to writing about it.  The install itself was about as simple as it gets.  All I had to do was remove the old tail light converter and mechanical flasher can and hook the wires up to the new solid state box.  I took the time to clean up the wiring while I had it apart.

Under the lid of what used to be a 4 fuse block is now a PIC processer that drives the controller.  Because of power limitations the tail and brake lights needed to be converted to LED.  I was able us the stock bulbs for the front turn signals and dash indicator though.  I still need to figure out a way to make noise to simulate the mechanical flasher can but that can happen later.
