I think single filament would still work....just wanted to check. Thanks!
Yes, the single filiment 1156 bulbs are what you use. The run/turn/brake system turns your turn signals on 1/2 power all the time, to act as running lights and full power when you hit the brakes. They will blink exactly like they do now. You can get red bulbs and clear or smoked lenses, or just get red lenses. I have the red lenses on mine but either ways its a great setup.
