I will be introducing a square turn signal to be mounted on the fender either in a custom style or as a direct replacement for the stock Tamiya turn signals. My question for everyone is this: would you prefer amber lenses on both sides or amber lens on the front and a red lens on the back?

If I must choose I say amber/red, but amber/amber would be useful like in mounting it upside down mid way down the underside of your trailer. Perhaps both was would be the most popular approach.

Looks like I will need to get more lenses :rolleyes: The square turn signals will be offered with both red and amber lenses.

Thanks for the feedback. I am planning a 5-10-13 unveiling of these 2 styles of turn signals. With about a 2 week period before the next new item.

Looks like the standard bezels will go back into production around the beginning of June. Only real big change is that the black plastic bezels will no longer be offered unless special ordered. I am going to try and keep a supply of the aluminum bezels on hand unless "Smiley" wipes me out :lol:

Amber/amber would be great for adding a load the the frame of a trailer, but then so would amber/red.

And i'll be hitting you up for some bezels once you're ready too!

Got some GREAT news yesterday. Looks like the standard aluminum bezels will definitely be available starting around the beginning of June. I am hoping for a maximum lead time of 2 days on most orders- just enough time for me to assemble them.


The square turn signals will hit the shelves next Friday with the second new item in another 2 weeks if the mods approve them by then. I am making the new parts every day right now so I hope I can keep my lead time on these to a maximum of 1 week.
