The only discussions I have found about this swap only apply...

    1988 monte ss running lights

    Are the running lights for the Monte on a different line than for the blinkers? I realized only one of my orange running lights turns on, but both will work as blinkers and hazards. Is it an easy fix?

Was there a big electrical system architecture change in '84? I know for the Dakota Digital VHX, it requires...
