Default Flush mount signals

Needing some help on this. I like the looks of the flush mount signals but wanted opinions on if you believe them "safe" enough for the streets. Have read some posts saying they are sometimes brighter. That said, any ideas on what would work best on a 07? Where to buy, etc. I did a Google search but was overwhelmed by all the choices. Any help from you experts out there would be a huge help! Thanks.

the safest is stock. Reason being is that they afford enough illumination from any angle to both a. tell other drivers your intentions and b. to let other driver judge your distance from themselves. it is very difficult to judge how far away something is with just one point of reference (the headlight). it's far easier to judge distance with two points (two lights spaced far enough apart to differentiate the two as seperate).

but that all doesn't concern you as much as you thought it did, i HIGHLY recommend Proton Flush Mounts. very high quality, pretty darn bright, and have both running light and turn signal interface.

Thanks for the info. I tend to side with staying as safe as possible - I've just started looking into flush mounts and am looking to gather some opinions. VERY much appreciated!

I agree 100%

I just installed mine a week ago on my 07. I like them better than some on the market because they kind of "bubble" out of the faring just enough to be seen from all angles, including the front. Some others that are out are a little recessed into the faring which brings down their visibility alot. They also have the running light, they are bright, and lastly, when you're wiring them up you have three blink patterns to choose from:

1.) A fast strobe effect
2.) normal blinking
3.) A slow fade in and out
