Title: Remote Turn signal indicators Post by BOBD on 08/30/12 at 06:53:23 I put 2 red led's on my mirrors and hooked them up to the turn signal wires in the head light. You have to cover the led's with a piece of a black hose big enough to fit over the led and just see the top of the led so you can see them in the daylight. Since I'm always looking in my mirrors they remind me to turn off turn signals. Also I am trying to make it a habit to turn them off right after turning. |

Title: Re: Turn signals Post by Blinky on 08/31/12 at 12:17:37 Way to go. Best idea I have seen in a while. Let us know what you work out for mounting. Wondering if anyone make a LED light or small strip with an adhesive back? |

Title: Re: Turn signals Post by Blinky on 08/31/12 at 12:37:22 Found this on e-bay. http://www.amazon.com/Amber-Mirror-Signals-Blinkers-Indicators/dp/B003V5T87W/ref=pd_sim_sbs_auto_11 or in red http://www.amazon.com/CIPA-08800-Add-A-Signal-Arrows/dp/B000CISLQ0/ref=pd_sim_auto_3 For what it is worth |

Yep just take a look at Ebay or just about any of the LED wholesalers. There are lots of self adhesive led strip lights out there. Here is one with just a really quick search. http://www.superbrightleds.com/moreinfo/side-emitting/swfls-x30-bk-series-30-side-emitting-led-flexible-light-strip-black-circuit/629/ http://cdn3.superbrightleds.com/timthumb.php?h=230&src=http://d114hh0cykhyb0.cloudfront.net/images/uploads/led-flexible-light-strip-swfls-x30bk_1.jpg&trim=1&zc=1 R.F. |

Title: Re: Turn signals Post by BOBD on 08/31/12 at 12:54:25 Great ideas. I like the ones that Blinky saw: http://www.amazon.com/Amber-Mirror-Signals-Blinkers-Indicators/dp/B003V5T87W/ref=pd_sim_sbs_auto_11 Thing I don't like about it is they would block some of the vision in your mirrors although I do turn my head anyway when changing lanes etc I may just use some Velcro. |

Title: Re: Turn signals Post by BOBD on 09/01/12 at 12:35:37 Velcro did not work. So I used hose clamps. Works for me. http://i1171.photobucket.com/albums/r552/SUZUKIS40/f84e2d34.jpg |

Title: Re: Turn signals Post by Routy on 09/03/12 at 03:21:14 That looks so tacky ! The beeper inside the headlite,......the way to go ! |

Title: Re: Turn signals Post by BOBD on 09/03/12 at 13:49:30 That's me! MR. TACHY! Don't like beepers, man. Still working on better way to mount them. Still works good enough for this old fart for now anyway! |

Title: Re: Turn signals Post by arteacher on 09/03/12 at 16:55:23 Get yourself a diamond drill bit the size you need and drill a hole in the glass, snap 'em in, and your good to go. If I were to do it I would mount them into the windshield. Run the wires down the sides under door edge molding. |

Title: Re: Turn signals Post by BOBD on 09/04/12 at 06:27:08 Sorry. No holes in the windshield for me. This is it for me: http://i1171.photobucket.com/albums/r552/SUZUKIS40/88a90801.jpg If anybody wants to improve it or whatever, you are welcome to it. Could get rid of the extra sticking out from under clamp I guess. Like it or not. TS |

Title: Re: Remote Turn signal indicators Post by heroicseven on 10/18/12 at 00:38:26 Could you incorporate this into the turn signal circuit? It might clean up the mounting. Its battery powered, would the signal circuit be to much? http://www.ningbolight.com/products/LED-bicycle-light-of-safety-bicycle-rear-light-1030251.html |
