turn signalsinstalled in the body

[warriorboxerdog]

I want to install the turn signals next to the brake lights. On the super 8 there is a spot where it looks like turn signals but its fake. I was thinking of installing some orange turn signal bulbs in there in the rear and in the front. I have seen people that have done it online but I don't know where they got the light bulb sockets at. I tried a local motorcycle shop that sells scooter (there parts guys blew me off) I looked at advanced auto and found nothing, I tried a trailer lights shop and nothing. I looked online as well. If you have done this pleas tell me how and where you got the parts at please.

I took the sockets out of the stalks. Does yours have the square cross looking holes in the body for the sockets?
If so the side marker sockets from any early1990's Gm will fit. http://www.amazon.com/Marker-Lights-Socket-Assembly-12083460/dp/B0040D2TO8

I want to do the samething eventually to mine. Would look so much better.

I'm considering LED's for those same locations. Less power required and likely less drilling/ cutting to make it work.

Thanks wordslinger. I've been reading and learning much on here since buying my Super 8 recently. While motorcycles aren't new to me, 2-strokes, variators and CVTs are. Those lights are just one thing on the to-do list after the de-restrict. If  find anything I'll post it. This place has potential. There are some 12V mini indicator lights there that look good:

Yep, you spelled it right. Just a play on my initials GW.

Hey!!!!!!! Buy my ZX. I'll cut you the deal of a lifetime.
You can throw away the bike, and have a few G's worth of parts!

I had the local LT. do my radar run. They all get a kick out of my bikes.

It's different down here.
