Re: Idies, are these llegal???
Sadly illegal, I think they look good on the right bike.
Your supposed to remove the original indicator though, thats the whole point.

Re: Idies, are these llegal???
Also in certain lighting conditions they are really really difficult to see. I've followed a couple of bikes with those fitted and I didnt realise they were turning right until I was very close to the back of the bike.

Re: Idies, are these llegal???
No they are still illegal despite there being proper indies
The Construction and use regulations define the colour of the rear light/brake light red and bright red. a minimum distance between indicators, colour of indicators and flash rate. simply disconnect the indicator function and you should be OK.
