Weather still not good enough to take her out so had to tinker.
Despite the industrial strength buzzer coupled to the indicators I
still find I drive for miles with the indicator on if I am on a
long journey and listening to a podcast on my headphones. The
basic problem is that the old-style warning lights just don't show
up in bright sunlight.
So as a temporary test I have added a
strip of high power LEDs that I had lying around.
I will also check out a single 'ultra bright' LED (£1.79 on E-Bay)
and see if that works. If the strip is better I'll get some nice
green ones and do a better design, probably tucked up underneath the
scuttle.
Might even look at replacing ALL the warning lights
with LEDs when I do the complete redesign of the dash (winter
project).
