Don't know what wire to connect but only the outer bulbs blink with the turn/hazard signal switch on.
Let us know how this modification goes.

Yes, easily done, and has been. The 92-95 Taurus tailights contain 2 bulbs each. In the stock condition, the outermost bulbs (closest to the left and right sides) are TAIL, TURN/HAZARD, and STOP function, and the innermost bulbs (closest to the backup lights) are TAIL and STOP only. Each bulb socket has 3 wires going to it- black or white, green and striped. The striped wires on the outermost bulbs are the TURN/HAZARD signal wires. To make the innermost bulbs act like the outermost bulbs, cut the striped wires on the innermost bulbs, cap and electrical tape the ends of this wire leading back into the car through the wiring harness, and take the ends of this wire leading to the socket and splice a small piece of wire from that socket into the outermost bulb's striped wire on each side. In essence, the TURN/HAZARD signal will now be sent to both tailight bulbs on each side, the TAIL and STOP functions will continue as stock. I did this on my SHOs back in 2001 and IMHO I think it looks awesome. If no one else has done this before, I'll take the inventor's privelege and term this the "BLINK BLINK" modification. :) By the way, I travel the highways and byways of Northern New Jersey ALL THE TIME- did you happen to see an SHO with this modification on the roads there? If you did, now you know who it was. thumb
