Ok, as some of you may know I own a 2002 Hornet, the tail has been chopped down so I dont have any room for indicators, apart from those really really short stubby ones which are on there atm.

The stubby ones tbh, are naff and I think to anybody else they will be hard to see.

I've been looking at the clear LED ones, with integrated indicators.

But even those look quite shoddy...

SO

I had the idea of buying the integrated LED ones, and keep the stubby ones too, effectively having 6 indicators.

What would require being done to the relay?

I have mini front ones too to match the back.

Also, how legal are these?

Thanks for the help!

Tim

I doubt you'd get any problems with the legal side, cars have six indicators, as the majority have side blinkers or more often these days, mirror indicators.

Go for it, no copper is going to do you for being over safety cautious.

Cheers

You could always put them on the bottom of the number plate , or cut some holes in the tail pod and install some integrated into the rear tail pod kind.

Ironically enough, integrated indicators (assuming that you're talking about something like this) actually require you to have a set of external indicators. Or so I'm led to believe, anyway.
