Default front signal holes

does anybody make anything that cover up the holes completely after you remove the front signals (03-04 zx6rr)? and not just the adaptor plates for the short stalk? if not is there a big enough demand out there for me to fabricate something for people that would want one (would rather just buy some...i'm lazy)?

are you looking to completely remove your turnsignals or were you looking for something like a flushmount that will fit in the hole?

What do you think of these LED's? I also have Flush mount LED's in the Turn signal locations. The Headlight LED'd work as running lights and blink alternately with the turn signals.

i have 4 LEDs that are 10,000 mcd each for each blinker yeah 10,000 that's not a typo...and they have 45 degree viewing angles, it's brighter than the tail light.

same idea as speedracer, but i mounted them on vector boards, put them in and sealed it back up

edit, i also have some 24,000 mcd LED's but they're white, i don't know what to do with them, anyone have suggestions? i considered buying a bunch of them and turning it into a head light but the viewing angle's too small hehe

Txredneckmedic; They are still visible in the daylight. They're coming out with LED Headlights soon for cars; That's the new technology. Probably be on bikes soon also due to the weight reduction fact. mr2turbo, what kind of LED signals do you have? Any pics?

sorry, no pictures, i don't have a digital camera, but i can try and borrow my buddy's camera sometime soon and post pictures

the LED's are amber S-Flux 10,000 mcd 45 deg viewing angle 587nm wavelength 2.1 forward volts, and 20mA

i was considering doing it for the rear also, but i don't know where to put them, since i don't want to cnc anything, i just build it on vector boards drill some holes, and fill it with epoxy heh...did you get your kit on ebay with the "custom fit plugs" or something like that? also what kinda turn signals are your flushmounts (brand where to get them)?
