Default Front sigs...yes or no
Wondering how big of a safety issue front signals are. Seems cagers don't see em anyway.
Thinkin about pullin mine off instead of relocating them. Here in Iowa we don't have to have 'em.
What are your thoughts??

Cut mine off. Haven't looked back yet. No need for them, in my opinion. Kinda feel safer without them, that way no cagers will think I'm turning in an area that I'm not or whatever.. ya know?

Hey I am in Iowa too, and was wondering the same thing, only seems to play a big role at a 4 way stop sign intersection, the oncoming cars wouldn't know if you planned to turn left in front of them.

Made small brackets and changed them to those amber colored license plate led's. They use the mirror stem and are tucked up under the clutch and brake levers.

What I meant was... if your in a right turning lane, and you have several entrance points to, lets say a shopping plaza, and you put your turn sigs. on but you don't want to go in till the next entrance, a cager might think otherwise and pull out in front of ya. LOL did that make sense? I'm not to sure how to explain it... haha

I like having em. Too many idiots at 4-way stops who'd think I'm going straight when I'm really turning left.
