I have the two bulb headlight and planning to use the parking lights as turn signals either internal or external to the headlight. I plan to replace the reflectors as the reflective silvering is in very bad shape so My question is if I use internal turn signal lights I do not need to change the reflector "style" but if I go with external blinkers I need to change the reflector to the single bulb style (or just leave an unused bulb in the dual reflector.)

IF I go with a single bulb reflector will the dual bulb (headlight) socket work with the single bulb reflector?

I like the idea of internal turn lights but I have read where you cannot see the blinkers if the headlights are on so thinking external would be better but no turn signals on the car now so seems like whatever set up someone likes...
