I have little ones front and back.
Front is similar to old fiesta ones.
Rear are arrow shaped.
They're not as visible as standard but I like them. I think Mac was selling a set of the flush fronts?ImageImage

Forget 6 spoke as it's more to clean...go Carbon :biggrin that's my wish anyway. One day eventually I'll have some.

I have the same style flush indi's up front. I'm fed up with them now and going to get some of the following led's for the front:

And then the rear's I haven't quite decided yet but it's looking like I may get the following:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RYDE-LED-REAC ... Sw4hdXIKJOI like the idea that they curl around so can be seen from the side too. It's just a shame that they have a plastic back and not real Carbon fibre.

An led relay will be required to sort out the flash rate.

Yeh but first you need to decide whether to stick with conventional bulbs or go LED. It wouldn't be the best idea to mix and match. You could use in-line resisters but these are a bit hit and miss and don't work like a dedicated relay does.
