indicator stalks

does anyone make a decent indicator stalk

it can be manufactured just for a kit car, or it can be from a production car - not too arsed which but I cant find a single vehicle with a nice looking indicator stalk (I did find the veyrons quite snazzy, but im unlikely to find one in the scrappy and they are £12k new - yup £12k)

it only needs to do indicators, so just up and down but i suppose if it went back and forward it wouldnt really matter

yeah might be a plan

i cant find anything else exciting to be honest, will grab some sierra ones off ebay and use it for IVA then swap to the Dax one, unless anyone can confirm they will be ok for IVA

depends what you call "Nice"...if you want self cancelling (girly) then it is best to match to steering column





sometimes you are the pigeon, most of the time the statue.

Check out TVR stalks, some times sold as Elise ones, they fit to vaux bases (corsa/cavalier etc)

You can get a flasher unit that does this ( but doubt it is ever part of the stalk ? ) that seem to be popular on Bikes.

Have a search for SignalMinder. They are quite expensive ( $100 ) but maybe there is a cheaper version.



ETA : another alternative : http://www.amazon.com/Signal-Dynamics-Motorcycle-Self-Cancelling-Module/dp/B0039X2PQM/ref=pd_sim_sbs_auto_2




CBS do a basic stalk ( http://www.cbsonline.co.uk/product/Column_Mount_Indicator_Switch_INDSW3 )



Cheers

Tim.

Almost certainly ECU/Canbus controlled. So as Tim mentioned, you would need a relay or ecu to control this.
