how about using the turn signals as a pair of strobes ? kind of a "anti-collision/flashers" setup.Originally posted by camaromitch
Also, has anyone done anything neat with the turn signal lights? I just have the wires taped up but they are too cool not to do something with.
I installed a set of Xenon strobes on my 400ex, and my daughters trx90.
My intention is to run them during the daytime, when riding on trails where there is a high posibility of having someone coming the other way. (Head-on collision Avoidance).
I have not yet installed a brake light, but I have considered it, and will use this thread as a guideline for ideas when I do a install on my quad.
(heck, I'll probably end up doing it to my wife and daughters quads too).
I would guess, that the driver used on the strobes, could be pigtailed into to drive the rear turn signals.
(although it may also need to have a resistor installed "inline" to reduce the voltage, for an LED application). just a thought.
here is a link to a thread I made on the strobes install on my 400ex.

maybe it can spark some ideas for you. enjoy.
BTW- I'd like to nominate this thread, for tail/brake light mod, to be considered for addition, to the "most popular threads" , in Pappy's top sticky.
