Replacing indicators
Hi all,
The tab for the screw on my left rear indicator has cracked off meaning the indicator can fall out now.
I got a cheapy replacement off ebay only to find out that Honda seems to make the indicators as sealed items and my hope of simply replacing the cover is out of the questions unless I decide to start chopping.
Can you guys recommend anywhere online that I can just source an idicator from?
(I'm in Melbourne)

Re: Replacing indicators
CMSNL or maybe David Silver Spares...OEM
i sort of don't understand...why don't you just use the ebay ones as Drunkn has mentioned? why would you just want to replace the cover if you have an entire unit that you can replace the broken one with?

Re: Replacing indicators
The ones of ebay don't have the correct length leads on them and don't come with a sheath.
I'd have to start chopping, also the quality of the connections at the rear of the globe seems very poor

Re: Replacing indicators
I got the ones off ebay with the clear lenses and I used the wiring and bulb holders from the original honda. Job done!
