Front Indicator conversionwasted 04-26-2003, 03:20 PM Hi:hellobye
Any one thinking of buying a Front Indicator conversion kit take a look at this........it works but cost me £80:confused: Day light robbery or what. I rekkon theres about £20 quids worth!:iamwithst Live and learn eh! Ronin R1 04-26-2003, 03:30 PM probably more in the neighborhood of 10!
Take it back and do a search for running light mod on the forum. wasted 04-26-2003, 03:34 PM probably more in the neighborhood of 10! I was trying to make myself feel better.:( 6832 04-30-2003, 10:46 PM Nope, you paid way too much. I did it with Greggs wired LED's for $40.00 and two high quality SPDT 12v Bosch relays for $10.00. The wired LED's are bright as hell and will not burn out. I installed them in the factory headlamp housings where the white running lights are. When I signal they flash with the flushmounts I have on the bike. Looks great IMO !!

Simply enlarge the factory openings with a dremmel so you can fit the Greggs wired LED's in. Then secure them with silicone or epoxy. Wire as running lights, turn signals, or both. To use them as turn signals also you will need to wire in two 12v relays that interrupt the running light when the signals are engaged. kkameny 05-02-2003, 08:37 AM Can you see the epoxy or is there a panel to hide it? 6832 05-02-2003, 04:05 PM There is a black rubber cover that will still fit after you do this mod. You cannot see anything once the cover is put back on. I would take a picture but my bike is at the dealer right now. 6832 05-02-2003, 05:11 PM Here is a diagram of how to wire each realy to make two wire lights flash with your turn signals, like Greggs LED's !!

Can you actually see the front led flash with the head light on? 6832 05-03-2003, 07:27 AM Yes, you can see them but they are not as bright as the stock signals. They are alot brighter than regular bulbs IMO and will not burn out !! Also, you need two relays. One for the right signal and one for the left. It is really easy to do....:D | |
