This is more of a write-up/review of the sequential turn signal kit than it is a how-to. The dual DRL mod was done by rangerbob and can be found here: http://coloradofans.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=38264
To complete the sequential turn signal mod, you will need to do the dual DRL mod first.
Items needed:
2 3157 3-wire bulb sockets PN 85881 found at AutoZone for $7.99 each
1 STS-2S Sequential Turn Signal kit found at http://www.webelectricproducts.com/products.htm for $49.00
Below is an image of the 85881 3157 bulb socket
Below is an image of the STS-2S Sequential Turn Signal module
Connections are as shown below
Here are connections made with the light harness removed from the truck
Note: The original inner bulb socket was left connected so it can be returned to stock if necessary should the new socket not work. Also, connections used, wire nuts and quick taps, are temporary to ensure the kit would work with our lighting system. I will cut off the stock socket and solder/heat shrink the connections after a week of testing.
Here's an image of the light sockets and harness installed
