To send a PM, look at a reply from Carcrazy and on the bar where is name is, look on the right side for the "SEND P.M." block. Click on that and type your message. It will go to Carcrazy.

Thank you so much. I installed them on my Model A years ago, but the 40 is a little different with the rear lights "tied" together. Paul in CT

2manybikes, I used incandescent 6V bulbs. In order to get the dual filament bulbs to fit under the parking light lenses, it was necessary to use small globe bulbs (P.N. V13465HR6) from MAC's. Also purchased from MAC's were two tail light wiring & sockets P.N. V13410B (01C-13410) to be used for the front lights.

carcrazy, did you use incandescent or led bulbs in your conversion?

whyforjim, I installed a turn signal with hazard flasher system in my 1940 Ford Deluxe Tudor a few years ago. Since I didn't want to add additional lights for the turn signals, I incorporated the system into the original parking and taillight housings. I have written up a detailed instruction list of all the parts and procedures required to accomplish this task. If you are interested in doing the job in the same way that I did, send me a personal message with you street address and I will send you, via the USPS, a complete set of instructions. Chuck

You can change the flash rate of any flasher by opening the can and adjusting the points. The thermal type flasher does not work very well with 6V LEDs. The relay type flasher like the Signalstat 181 do not need a load to flash, so they work very well with LED lights or incandescent bulbs. You need to make a few decisions about installing turn signals before you buy a kit: Do you want to use your current stop lights and parking lights for turn signals? If you do, do you want to convert your parking light sockets to the 2 element bulb, or just use the parking lights? Do you want to add four lights to use as turn signals? Do you want to use the rear ones as additional stop lights?
