Thank you for your purchase of the LED Clearance and Side Marker Trailer Light # MCL81RB from etrailer, and while there are clearance lights that can blink along with turn signals, unfortunately 2-wire lights like this one are unable to do so.
What you will need instead are 3-wire clearance lights designed to also work as turn signals, and there are both red and amber surface-mounted lights that are available.

I have added links below to video reviews of both lights for you to check out as well if you'd like.
