'FLASH'! New signals on my GS

[Pharkmeh]

Keith,
Did I miss it being discussed already? What if anything have you done with the rear signals?

I get the feeling there is never any one close enough to his ar$e end to see em....


...but I could be wrong about that...:-s

 

[ScottMc1100L]

Shamelessly bumping this up for those wanting to change their signals.

Shameless nothing, I've never seen the thread and I agrree with others, they look !!

Tasteful mod.

 

[Billyboy]

Cool lookin sigs!

 

[KEITH KRAUSE]

I don't have a close up of the rear sig's better than this.
This pic shows everything closer up. I'm not very knowledgable about computers and I've never understood why this pic is "blown up"? I though I took the pic and placed it in my website like any other pic. But it comes in handy for right side close ups.

 

[Billyboy]

Beautiful! And I like the picture of you in the points cover!:-D

 

[KEITH KRAUSE]

Yeah. Some angles I just have to put up with me in the pic. :roll:
It can be hard to find the right time of day to take a pic too. I get reflections/glare spots unless it's overcast or late in the day.
That's why the rotors look "golden" in this pic. The late day sun does that to 'em.

You know if you weren't so meticulous in your polishing you wouldn't have these problems!:shock::lol:

I still drool every time I see your handiwork, Keith ... I think it's a gift! I just don't have that kind of patience, although I do tend to be a perfectionist when working on any given project...

Regards,

It is blown up because of the pixel size. if you resize it to 640x480 pixels, or 800x600 pixels they will fit most screens. If you run XP you can download a small utility from MS that will allow you to right click on the file and save a resized copy of it. Here is the link.

Hmmm. Guess I had the camera on a higher resolution huh?
I could have sworn I took it at the same resolution as always. I kind of like having a pic like that though. Gives a close up for those trying to identify parts or cable routing or whatever. Thanks for the linky.

Thanks for the compliment. It IS a lot of work to keep things polished. But it's worth it.

I installed a diffrent style but the same watts and filiment, but when I apply the blinker switch they don't blink they just shine. What may be the problem?

You need to replace your stock flasher with a round automotive flasher like the one in this pic. About 4 bucks at the parts store.

would not happen to have a part number so I do not have to do the trial and error thing. The stock one is a 3 prong.

Are you sure it's a 3 prong? Mine is a 2 prong, Buss 552/536. If yours is a three prong, just take your old one with you and match it up to a Buss Flasher, standard automotive.

Got a standard 3 prong and the lights will not even shine. I can plug the OE relay in and get light but no blink action??????
