After the crash and the restoration i bought some cheap and chearful front indicators from a show after taking them out for my respray in January the bulbs no won't stay in. I've wedged them in but i was just wondering if anyone had a good remake where this won't happen after all my original ones were 20 odd years old and this didn't happen.

Tried different bulbs? I had some from halfrauds that wouldn't stay in ... bought some different ones (Bosch?) and they were fine. The cheap ones had very short locating pins and fell out at the first bump or pothole!
