Default LED flush mount turn signal opinion

Hi,
I've currently picked up an F4i and looking to change the front turn signals.

I found these

LED Flush Mount Front Turn Signals Light Honda CBR 600 F4 F4i 1000 RR 900 Clear | eBay

Has anyone ever tried these? They seem really cheap so not sure if I should order these or does anyone have any better suggestions?

Thanks!

I have the smoked version of those, quick and easy install, their bright enough for the day and very bright at night, their a great bargain for a quick cheap fix (mine were broken from the previous owner)

Going flush mounts, no matter if it's eBay specials or Proton flushmounts, will decrease visibility of turn signals.

I loved my Protons on my first bike, very bright, can be wired up as running lights but pretty much useless when viewing from the front. Pretty expensive though.

I have protons on mine they were a hundred bucks, and only visible from the front at night. I wired them in as running lights and put them on strobe mode.

but Kevin is right any flush mount will almost eliminate front visibility of your signals, I'm thinking of wiring in some LED's in my front air ducts to help with that.

I installed the flush smoke ones from eBay and also some Universal fit LED indicator mirrors last year. Search YouTube for "F4i CBR600F sport new front signals" if you want to see. Working well for me at the minute, mirrors needed some tightening up to stop them folding at high speed but otherwise okay and just passed an MOT last month also. Definitely the best looking turn signals IMO
