Here is how I made turn signal indicators for my 1968 Fury.
I used .063” plastic rod, and .010” plastic sheet.
The picture that should be here is at the bottom of this thread. I do not know how to move it.
I cut two pieces of the rod. About .165” long. I do not know how long the real indicators are, so I have to guess how long to make these indicators. The indicators on my Thunderbird are about .165” long. So that is where I started. I think they look good.
I filed the edges smooth.
Then I cut the base pieces from the plastic sheet.
I glued the bases to the indicators.
After painting them I installed them.
I had fun doing this little project. This is a 1968 Plymouth Fury III. It is a friction model purchased in 1968.
