My left turn signal doesn't blink, it just stays on. I noticed my side marker light doesn't work. Would this cause that, or something else?

Low blinker fluid. Come on man, you should know this. ;)

Yeah, on some cars, if a bulb is out, it blinks real fast. Other cars, it doesn't blink at all. Replace all the burnt out bulbs and it will be fine.

When a bulb stays on it generally means one of them is burned out.

I replaced my side marker light, still no flash. My horn doesn't work either. My front parking lights are filled with water...maybe I have a bad ground.

Aaron, if i were you i'd buy new parking lamps. It would make your car look awesome. Look how well they help mine, and i only have "good" paint. There's a big hole at the bottom of the the housing where the clear attaches to the black, you can clean out your housings and seal it up with RTV silcone (stuff you use for weather stripping) and it'll fix the problem ... Let me know if you want some while my dad is still working at Wilson, i'll probably be getting some weather stripping before he leaves.

I used tooth paste to polish up mine believe it or not. But, from the car sitting they need to be done again.

Toothpaste is good for the windshield also. They get those hardwater spots and fine scratches, and toothpaste has enough grit to "polish" the surface.

sorry to perpetuate the off topic-ness, but...

I try not to polish mine, seing as it's clear to begin with. I just use wax or soap and water. Plastic isnt as easy to buff as say clear coat. The real trick is sealing those puppies up, otherwise they get full of water and screw up the innner shiny part.
