My confusion was if you had to buy the 30w or 50w bulbs...
I did read the 16w link...
Do your LEDs work with the standard indicator flasher then?
i had read that I may need an electronic flasher relay...
On 6v I hada problem trying to run 3 6v bulbs on each side...
So I bought an electronic flasher unit which worked well....

I would be inclined to get the brightest ones
just to make it clear to others I AM TURNING
why dont you get the Red led stop/tail lights aswell. Looks a great mod.

Don't blow all of your money on these yet, if you can wait I've got some fantastic late split / early bay LED rear light conversions coming...
I've also found a way to fit LED stop, tail and amber indicators into early split rear lights, working on a 6v version of these as well

I've got rear lights with a clear indicator area rather than orange, that's a different way to go if you don't like the Orange/red rear lights.
