Right. I've decided that Iridium is ugly and I'm going for replacement flush mount indicators. The ones I currently have are documented here.

I need to get some the same size (8.5cm ish) or larger as the existing ones to cover the holes I had to drill to install them. I was just going to buy the same but in smoke - and then I saw some that were the same size but I different style. I was torn between them. Then, in a moment of madness, I saw some designed for the ninja 250 that I quite liked too (although they are huge at 13.2cm long).

I need you guys to vote and tell me what to choose. Or to donate some linkys of some nice flush mounts that are available in the UK (I'm not going to order them from abroad) and that use bulbs. I refuse to use LED indicators as they are pretty much only visible from the side and I don't want to sacrifice safety for looks!

I made a slight mistake with my flush mounts, you see, mine are seriously flush where theres no point having them on, so i use hand signals at intersections, but I need to get a bigger pair so people can still see them. I vote for the 3rd
Keep in mind when you install them your blinkers will go twice as fast because they are probably LEDs which require less power. (something along those lines) they make resistors if you ever need to pick em up.
There my opinion good luck.

Nah, I made sure they use bulbs. They're actually the same as the stock bulbs and the indicators I have now - only amber instead of clear. I've got a box of 20 of them from ebay (with 16 left spare) so this way I've got loads of spares. I had to replace the original 23w bulbs as they were far more draw than the stock 10w and blew a connector. Not quite as bright now but still looking nice!
 
I haven't had any front signals since we did the paint, I kinda forgot about them. Let me know what you choose, maybe I should get some too.
