    turn signal sorta....

    Yea. I had to replace that too. Try and find a used part dealer or someone on the board that is parting out. The new ones are fairly pricey

    turn signal sorta....

    Blinker Relay If I remember Correctly.... The blinker relay is in the fuse panel under the dash. Go to the store and buy the part... takes about 2 seconds to pull out the old one and pop the new one in. Problem fixed. Good Luck & Happy Holidays!

    Pics of problems

    No I've had this from about 96'. However the rust was pretty well contained I had thought. I bought a new car and had it off the road for a summer....apparently the "sitting" resulted in a bunch of rust now being formed. I'm not so concerned about the fenders, the rockers or the...
