I've found a set of 4 indicators (bulb type) on evilbay for about 8GBP which, i think is pretty reasonable, so i assume this will work ok with an AC relay?

As for the leonelli flasher unit, is this the only AC unit out there? And do i HAVE to use AC with bulb type indicators?

Thanks

Incandescent light bulbs don't care if 12V is AC or DC. LEDs need DC I believe.
I would assume somebody makes an AC turn signal flasher relay other than
Lionelli. I do not know of any myself.
On the pictures I showed is how I had to move the wires in the connector to
go from the three pole Lionelli flasher to the three pole DC auto flasher.
If you have more Q: send me a PM and I will try as best as I can.
I am not an authority on the subject for sure.
Jeff
