For those of you that have decided to run turn signals on models that did not come with them...what are you using for lights? Dual element sockets in the park lights? Dual elements in the brake lights? Separate lights?

the dual filament route is cleaner IMO and probably cheaper than adding 4 more seperate light assemblies, but either works

I moved my front park lights into my new halogen headlamps,kept the grill mounted park lights with single filament orange bulbs as turn signals,and used amber bed-roll LED lights at the rear.

Here in the UK turn signals and park lights are always separate.
