    Been looking at my options for signal lights wondering about the signal in the grill vs. the signal in the headlight. Thinking the signal light in the headlight would look very cool, but is it bright enough? I know there's a couple options in the headlight. Autoloc sells one called Snake eye and classic parts sells a 10 LED signal in the headlight. Has anyone used these and can people see them at night? I know the halogen light is pretty bright.

    Thanks

    Give the headlight lamps a try and if you don't like them as turn signals , use them as parking lamps .

    Some years back I did this using bulbs from some old Bell Helicopter , the bulbs had reflective backing inside the globe and so was very bright indeed .

    I have used them, they are plenty bright.

    I now have a set of LED headlights from Delta lighting. Not cheap but bright as day and look like regular lenses.
