Front indicators on wing
speedyxjs - 17/6/10 at 12:24 PM

I was thinking about having the front indicators on the front of the cycle wing. Will Mr IVA approve?

Also is there a size requirement for the front indicators?

Id look in the IVA manual but i cant open PDF's on the college computers

Great, cheers

Also, can those led strips you see on ebay work as side lights?

Be careful with LEDs.... they have to be WHITE..preferably slightly orangy (like a normal filiment bulb).... Mine failed because, when a piece of paper was held in front of them, you could just about see a blue tinge to the light..... farking stupid if you ask me, but hey ho... im sure the SVA man was taking the weewee!

My Jag failed its'MOT because I had fitted "white" LED sidelamp bulbs! ('cos I was fed up with replacing the stupid capless ones originally fitted.)

are you talking front indicators or side repeaters..

I had the front indicators in the usual position and put side repeaters in the headlight bowl..

Not sure if the front indicators are allowed to move when you turn the wheels.

I meant front indicators not side repeators.
