Hey guys, I recently bought Zmilin's laydown plate with 3/8" holes for the OEM turn signal brackets.

http://www.bonnevilleamerica.com/forums/...0&fpart=all

I love the plate, but after getting everything installed, I'm looking for shorter stalks, or some stubby turn signals that I can bolt in.

Does anyone have any recommendations for incandescent bulb replacements? I like the stock look, just want the stalks to be shorter, and I don't have access to much in the way of tools for cutting the stock stalks.

I know Zmilin's sold a lot of these plates so I know there are some good ideas out there, but I can't seem to find them on the board...

Thanks,

I just bought some I liked from a local shop that had a short stem and replaced them. It was very simple and straight forward.

Im partial to the Kuryakyn small silver bullets.

In the pic below I used the short chrome spacers from JP cycle. Those have since been removed to get the lights tighter to the plate (as seen in the picture). This is Karens bike.

I eventually went with the British Customs Deuces with the smoked lens (http://www.british-customs.com/mini-deuce-clear-smoked-turn-signals.html)
