Do red lenses exist for our turn signals? I don't want to make red turn signals. I want to use the lights for something else though, and would like red lenses. Are they available anywhere? I'm not finding them.

I've thought of that. That would be a second choice. I'd rather have the red lenses. I've seen some that come with the run/turn/brake light kits, but I don't want to buy the kit just for the lenses. I'm thinking they have to be available somewhere separately, even if just for those kits. But I haven't been able to find them.

I got the Kuryakyn red lenses last sept and they work and look great. I also used regular 1156 bulbs under them. I had to file one of the nubs on the bulb base, and it worked great. With the Harley license bracket and lights everything looks the same from the rear.

I bought mine from extremerevolution.com.

Good luck

For more light and about the same money as an 1156 bulb, use a 2357LL bulb in the same socket. You will have to file off one of the indexing pins to get it to fit. Look at the bulb you take out to figure out which one to remove.

 

For more info click HERE and read that thread.

 

To see the increased light output, replace one bulb. Start your bike to get the alternating working, and turn on your emergency flashers. compare the brightness in day light and at night. There should be about a 35% increase in the light output for just a few dollars.

Would never work in Oz.

ALL turn signals MUST BE amber.

Red is only for tail lights and brake lights.

All rear facing lights can be only red or amber.

Reversing light obviously is clear.

All forward facing lights must be either clear or amber.

Saves a lot of damned confusion, don't you reckon?
