Slant Nose Turn Signals, I need ideas Options

[Tom Perso]

Hey Guys,

On my slant nose 914, there are no front turn signals. it bugs me to no end not having them. Here's a pic of the front of the car.

Any thoughts on how I could mount some kind of yellow/amber lights on the front for turn signals?

I have some ideas, but I am curious as to what other people think.

Thanks!
Tom

I'll third (or fourth) the idea of putting them behind the foglight grills (next to the fog lights). If you want to get really tricky, use amber ultra-bright l.e.d.s and attach them directly to the grills in the slots.

I think LEDs would be really cool. You can get led "bulbs" that should fit in the back if you want consistent look. You could put the marker lights that some 914's have on the side on there and use those as a turn signal.

Another idea - if you steal some mercedes wing mirrors, you could use the wing mirror flashers...?

Another thing to do if you want to be noticed (and distinctive) is build a circuit that flashes them with irregular intervals. It's really hard to ignore something that has irregular blink frequency.

Using the headlight and poping up one headlight in the direction you are turning is a freakin awesome idea, btw.
