xti Posted October 4, 2005 Was wondering if anyone has up sized the bulb on the OEM signals to get more visibiltiy? Hopefully without frying the wires Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MTgrayling Posted October 4, 2005 I haven't found a higher wattage bulb for the turn signals yet (#1156) , athough I am running a 15/50w (#1157h) halogen in the brake light and it seems to be handling the extra wattage just fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xti Posted October 4, 2005 Thanks for the tip on the brake bulb I will have to give that a try. I will try to do some research to see if there is a halogen replacement for the turn signals. You can never be too visible out there. I wish the DRZ had a big hammer that would come out and give people a little bonk on the head to pay attention when they turn right in front of you.

NuB Posted October 4, 2005 I have not tried them but supposedly the LED bulbs give brighter light. They should be direct replacement bulbs but cost more $$. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes they are brighter, but they will screw the flash rate up, unless you start playing with resisters. Neil. 🤣 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NuB Posted October 5, 2005 Faster blinking rate is easier to see, thus safer. Hehehehe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
