I didn't really like the way my retro scooter had two sets of turn signals. I prefer the look of the lights that are built into the fairing over the handlebar mounted lights. The problem is that the fairing mounted lights had no bulbs. I removed my handlebar mounted bulbs and used the wiring from them to power lights in the fairing mounted lights..
Most of these lights have a screw on the back side of them that will allow you to remove them. Once removed, I found that my dummy lights were already setup for bulbs.
I ordered these marker light sockets off of eBay that can house 912 bulbs. 5 sockets only totaled around $9, and I only needed 2 for this job.
The sockets were actually just a little large for the light housings, but after a little work with files they fit securely.
You can either splice into the stock wiring to make these auxiliary blinkers, or just attach these to the stock wiring and remove the other signals. Another iption would be to use one set as marker/running lights. You would need to supply each bulb with a ground and the positive input for each would need to be switched or tapped into the lighting circuit.
