front turn signals
http://www.mikes-afordable.com/product/A13405T6.html any pictures of these on a model A? Thanks. Currently mocking up painted 10 watt bulbs as signals, not sure if they are going to be bright enough. Pic with hazards on, have a 21 watt drying ill try tomorrow.

Re: front turn signals
Really like the 21cp painted bulbs I put in better than these 10cp, made another thread for it. https://fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=161651

Re: front turn signals
Brattons has the 32 cp bulb for tail or stop light, they are really good have been using them a few years. This year I changed to united pacific LED units and they are out of this world , really bright. Check into the 32 cp and run them for turn signal in your front head light. I think you may like them have fun modelAtony tony white Lafayette, LA FORGOT TO ADD THIS I like what 1931 FLAMINGO did using his fog lights for turn signal I have always thought that would really be safe.

Re: front turn signals
modelAtony: Thanks for the compliment. I picked those up at Rhinebeck about 4 years ago. Had seen about 6 pair, good shape, from about $75-$150. Found these, Ford logo and a little "patina" for TWENTY dollars and they worked. Couldn't get the money out fast enough. Seller wrapped them nicely in newspaper and put in a bag. I grinned ear to ear all the way home.

Re: front turn signals
I have the hi wattage incandescent bulbs on my cowl ights and never have a problem being seen at a red light making a left turn which is the main reason for a front turn signal when you think about it. I have the full sized LED combo in red only for my taillights as well as having a Third Brake Light. The LED puts out as much light as on my modern cars and the third brake light is the same color since I am a big believer that the amber lights just confuse fellow drivers.

Re: front turn signals
I don't like those rectangular lights between the bumper bars, they take away the old fashion look of the car. On my 30 roadster I use the cowl lights but the 29 coupe uses the smaller rectangular lights and truthfully they are too small. I have been looking for a better front signal light arrangement but haven't found it yet.

Re: front turn signals
The lights between the bars are hard to see in bright daylight. Could be my 79 year old eyes though
