Well... some 2nd thoughts are brewing on that.
Right now I'm using a Run-Turn-Stop module with just the stock rear sigs.

I'm thinking about splicing in a pair of 3wire, dual element, front sigs for the rear.

Looks good? Is the run-turn-stop module difficult to install. I'm thinking about ditching my taillight.
