Default Flush mounted turn signals?

Back in the late 90s, there were some flush mounted turn signals, and I can't remember who makes them. They had chrome housings, and ramped out from the sideplates, then there was a small light, and they sloped back in toward the frame at the rear. Does anyone have any idea what I am talking about? I'd love to figure out who made them, and I want to get a pair for the softie.

Arlen Ness, or Drag Specialities! A good choice.

They look a lot like them. After looking at the signals tho, I think that they wouldn't fit because of the sissy bar struts. I am wondering if there is on like those that will work on that part of the strut. I appreciate the help though. I always liked the fact that they didn't stick out, but were still very visible. Maybe LED type, when I can get to them. I certainly blew out my bike budget this month already. Next month is looking better. Pricier than I originally thought. At Arlen Ness, http://shop.arlenness.com/store/prod...roduct_ID+7052they have the red for the rear and they are available in LED; I don't know if they'll fit. I also don't see the ones they have for the front anywhere yet. If anyone comes up with anything, please add it, and if I find anything, I will.

These might work if they made them in red.

tmitchell where did you get yours
I ordered them from the J&P catalog. They are on page 372 of the current catalog. You can look at the catalog on line if you don't have one. They are from Kuryakyn and are called LED strut mount mini bullets. Part number 330-641 for the red lens and 330-642 for the amber. They cost $79.99.
Which ever lens color you order, they will come with the clear lens installed and have the colored lens separate in the package. Make sure you change the lens, to the color you want,before you install the signals. If you install the signals first, you will find out that the set screw that holds the lens in place is trapped against the strut. This means you have to take the struts most of the way off to access the set screw. I sent an e-mail to Kuryakyn to let them know what I though of the moron that placed the set screw in that location, but I doubt if they have changed the design.
Other then that they work fine and nest nicely against the struts.
