Flush mount turn signals

2000 Superhawk. I'm looking for some flush mount led front turn signals. Trying to keep it under 40$USD. The holes in fairing are 2.5in long by 1.5in wide. IDK if this is
the stock hole size, as I am not first owner. I ordered a set more than once and they are always too small to cover hole. I was thinking about trying a set for a CBR 1000, but I don't want to keep wasting money. Suggestions, comments????

Flush Mount Marker Lights K&S Tech. Carbon/Smoke Lens- Single Filament 25-8026 | eBay

There are others. You just need to look and read the descriptions and they'll usually give you the dimensions, or just cross reference the part #s to find one that does, and also to find the best price.

These will also eliminate the problem you may have with putting LED turn signal bulbs on an older bike. When I put them on an FZR600 enough current jumped the bulb in the dash and caused the other opposite signal to blink as well. Requires using a resistor or the ghetto way is to pull the bulb in the dash.

102dals is an unknown quantity at this point
I'm not sure if any of he Ebay versions have running lights with the turns though.
Protons fit the holes (even 2.5x1.5") but are more than $40. The RC51 versions fit the stock fairing holes.

You can wire them to be running lights. I have a thread on here how to do it. Mine are running lights then flash for turn sigs. I highly recommend it, way more visibility.

Here is how to do it https://cbrforum.com/forum/how-mecha...-inputs-84998/

RC-51 Protons fit very well you have a choice of flash patterns and will function as running lights, definitely not $40, but you get what to pay for. With LED blinkers, you will need to change the flasher to a no load unit, this one plugs directly into the harness plug and mounts to the stock mount.

Actually any LED front blinker is plug n play unless you change out the rear too. A no load plug in blinker is like $4 shipped on ebay.

Would be surprised if they weren't all made in China at the same factory.
