Hello,
Could someone please tell me the length of the front turn signal post from the edge of the headlight to the edge of the turn signal?
Just purchased a nice set of front signals without the posts. I'm going to try to machine them. Toughest part will be the splines. I have the rear signals for spline and diameter measurements.
Thanks.

Hi Redbug,
As far as I can tell 65mm long.
Stuart.

Stuart,
Wow, OK, knurl, I had not even thought of that. Great idea. I think I have a straight knurl. If not I'll purchase one. Always wondered how they cut the splines, knurl makes perfect sense.
I was thinking about how I was going to do it. Using my bridgeport nibbler and a divider. Or, Small mill bit with divider. I also have an old shaper. Both ideas seemed labor intensive.
OK, I see them on ebay. I doubt my knurl is metric. I'll have to read up on the pitch to be sure I purchase the right one.
Thanks again and thanks for the measurement.
Regards,
Will.
