Hi,

is it possible to get the front indicators (maybe side repeater as well) to be continously on but still flash when used as a flasher ?
As seen on american cars.

cheers

Would have thought so, you'd just have to have clear lenses, and run separate LEDs to them. It might be a bit difficult with the side repeaters though?

But you can not have orange lights constantly on at the front of the vehicle unless rules are different for Belguim?

my inno has this already, i have white lenses and white dual filament bulbs. when the side lights are on and the indicators you get the effect you are after. The only problem is its hell to get through the MOT with white indicators. https://picasaweb.go...feat=directlink

I have this, used landrover brake lights for the front indicators. and an orange lens, the 5w lights up all the time (when i want it too) and the 21w flashes like the normal indicator.

Passed the MOT like this and i made sure they knew about them, so its not a fail.
