Re: 6V to 12V converter

I used one from eBay​ to run the 12v LEDs that I used for turn signals. It has worked great for over a year. I found the LEDs on eBay also .

Re: LED turn signals don't work

I used a electronic 3 pin flasher designed for use on a motorcycle that I found on eBay. It has an adjustable flash rate. Just installed it last fall but has worked good so far.
