What indicators?

Changing to LED's purely because I have tyga original shape fairing which doesn't have holes for indicators and it's easier to just change to LED's
I have these for the front:

but they will not suit the back, any suggestions? (i don't really like pointy arrow style ones)
Thanks

If you supply OE indicators I can convert them to LED for you, £6 per corner plus return postage

can you run standard back indicators with LED's on front as long as you stick resistors in front?
Thanks for the offer but is it not just a case of getting led bulbs and resistors to convert?

You can do it that way if you prefer but some of my customers found the external resistor to have a huge heat issue. Also, because you are using just one large resistor the current to each individual LED is less than it needs to be for optimum brightness.

Steve, do you have any pictures of what you do the the indicators to convert them to LED, what colour are they and how bright will they be.

How do these not work for the back indicators? I'm thinking of doing all 4 with these style (but black).

I'll dig out some pics of the GPX ones I've done for my bike.

they are just too small and the bolts that are attached to them aren't big enough to fit through the rubber mounting grommet of the standard indicators
