Default Found replacement turn signals.

I needed rear turn signals, and after searching around, I took a chance on some signals from Hong Kong.

They specifically said in the auction that if I'm looking for quality, to look elsewhere. That was kinda odd.

Anyways, they came in today after waiting two weeks.

They actually don't look so bad! I'll need to take them apart and shave some of the plastic to make the fit and finish just a bit better, but for $20, I can't complain.

Pretty cool!

The pictures show the new signal against my stock front signals. Almost exact match. It'll be hard to tell the difference since you wont see both faces at one time once on the bike.

I got the same ones, Only real issue I seen was they use some strange bulbs that I can't say I've seen in any stores but I got a set of 4 so I have 2 extra. Also the lenses on mine did not have the rubber ring to seal them like the fronts do on mine But they have been working all summer without a problem.

I guess I could rig up something if they burn out - the housing is the important part.

And I can try to put a bead of silicone under the lens...

Its the price to pay for going cheap!

Well mine have been going good for the first season and have survived riding in the rain and still look really good lol I actually put the housing onto the stock neck from my old blinkers, They fit and are a pretty close copy on that part but couldn't get the internals and electrical to fit in but they do the job.
