Also mine must be illegal as I've 4 front indicators, 2 on the mirrors and 2 side repeaters.

As for the OP, EDIT: just seen the side view pic you posted. You'd be better off measureing it first cos yes, its going to be bloody close.
Standard or flushed into the fairing.

If flushed into the fairing, then there is no limit side facing repeaters

Most of them are not very bright and the colouration in certain light conditions can make the brake light and indicator look very similar.

From the VOSA pdf

Front indicator
Amber
2 max
Min height 350mm
Max height 1200mm
Min distance apart 240mm

Rear indicator
Amber
2 or 4 max
Height as front
Min distance apart 180mm
Max 300mm from rear
Just a bit of clarification here. They need to flash amber, not be amber, correct? Many vehicles come with clear lenses and amber bulbs nowadays.

Yeah they're flush mounted, Initailly I just got them in prefernce to blanking plates but on fitting the mirror indys I noticed its actually quite hard to see them from the side so having side flush mounted ones as well has worked out as a massive benifit.

I believe the ruling is in respect to the light emitted/seen rather than the lenses/bulbs thing

You could just change the link pipe so that the exhaust is not high level.
