This is your project and your askin for help? Im assumin your taking a class on this, right? Wouldnt the class have given you some insight? Also, we need a little more insight to what you have to use. Little lamp bulbs. Does it have to look good, or juss have to work? Anyways, heres something basic. http://www.bcae1.com/ Its mostly car audio, but it will help a little. You need some bulbs (12V), the blinkers will use a relay switch, switches. Also, if you have a manual for your car, they have wiring diagrams. You can look at the one for head lights and tail and get a feel for whats used.

i've taken electronics classes so i'm not going to help you anymore then they already have. its pretty basic stuff so if you can't figure it without too much help then you'll be screwed when it gets to complicated stuff. once you start making it, if you really get stumped, then ask again =)
