bike it indicators- don't bother
ok, been having problems with my indicators lately, they are bike-it arrow indicators, previous owner had done a toad job on the wiring so soldered the wire properly, heat-shrinked them, then put bullet connectors on and heat shrinked those, went to use them and they still didnt work. Only the rear left one, tried swapping the wires over, gave the wires a bit of a wiggle, didnt work so pulled the indicator apart and they were fooked inside, thin metal, rusted, and when i took the bulb out it just fell apart in my hands. They look good work fine, but they aren't waterproof so after tiome they will just fall apart. So on the look out for some new indicators. anybody tried the oxford ones? They are expensive but i would rather pay the money and know i dont have to worry again. So anybody used them? Are they good?

Are there any other decent aftermarket indicators, would love the oxford ones but its 80ish quid all in all, any recommendations?
