Front turn signal advice?

Harley-Davidson units mounted to the bumper brackets?

just a thought

Yep! See where the horn vent(s) are? Put the signals there. See this site:

its a 69' no horn vents here =P

Then get out the dremel and make some holes. I put some of these on my 73 STD. They are pretty cool except they blink kinda fast.

I would get some cheap orange lights from a local auto parts store, and devise a way to hang them off the bottom (or prop up on the top) of the front bumper. Then wire as usual. Metal clip covertly attached to the back of the bumper with rivets? ~Anthony

Fab a bracket that can be bolted to teh original bumper brackets. No irreversible mods, no drilling the original parts. Then go look at MOTORBIKE aftermarket parts calendars. Lots of cool little turn signal designs there, and not too expensive. Just bought two for Frannie in fact :)

Hey, putting a turn signal in the horn vents is the best, check out the ones i have.

He already said he doesn't have horn vents............

You could also go with the cal look round turn signals, also commonly used on bajas, The bumpers with turn signals built into them, or you could use the H-4 headlights with turn signals in the bulb, sometimes called Mercedes style.

Woops, didn't read that....what about the cal style bumpers that have the turnsignals in the bumper. Maybe too costly? I horn vent is a simple hole....just drill it out, won't ruin the paint cus the edges will be covered. I think maybe a hole for the signals will be best...unless you wish to fork out money for new front bumper and signals... ~Peace~Justin

Then he can put 'em in the headlight shells. If he freaks out that it's too much work, he can punch the friggin holes back into the front and use the horn/turnsignal thing. I hate the signals in the bumper. Looks late-model dumb.

How about these headlights with the signal built in:

hmm..how about if i put them behind the bumper bracket hole? but i dont think its legal to run without a front bumper...

..............My bug doesn't have any bumpers and it passes the safety inspection here in New York. The bracket holes are where I put my turn signals, maybe the inspector thought that it came that way from the factory. There are so few bugs on the road in this area, maybe there's never been any at this shop besides mine for several years. It's amazing what you can get by with sometimes.
