<div>I still like to use <strong>hand signals</strong> and since no one else does, they are unique to modern day driving and I believe actually noticed-especially when some high riding 6000 lb pickup gets behind me. Wonder if the DMVs still require one to know what they mean?

<div>LED stop lights are a great addition to a Healey, making it much easier for other motorists to see and avoid you.</div>

<div>Do keep in mind the stock flasher needs a certain amount of resistance to operate correctly, but LED lights have much lower draw. </div>

<div>You may wind up needing a solid state flasher to complete the project. They are not expensive.</div>
