1st Mud Mod
Bought a Street Bob on New Years Eve and have been lurking here for a couple months and making a few modifications to make the bike "my own."
When I added a detachable windshield to my Street Bob I noticed right away that the stock blinkers really lit up the inside of the windshield when I used them at night.
I used Mud’s idea and turned the blinkers OUT instead of in, and added chrome trim rings to finish it off. This makes a big difference in the amount of glare I get from the blinkers at night. I also added a visor ring to the headlight which got rid of the headlight glare when I use the brights.

Congrats on the new bike! Sounds like a good mod, and easy solution to your glare problem. I think I would have just mounted the directionals on the lower triple tree. No more glare and less clutter on the bars.
