Default Re: 1929 TwoLite headlamps w/ LED turn signals

In all three applications the socket shell/headlamp reflector/headlamp body is the "ground." (I usually run a separate ground wire from each socket back through the conduit to frame ground - Ford's concept of ground being maintained through all the junctures of the headlights was "optimistic.")

You certainly would need the proper LED bulb bayonet to fit.

Not to mention a turn-signal switch in parallel to everything else on the steering column.

Have they ever made an "add-on" turn-signal switch that "resets" when you return the steering column to neutral position?
