here is an idea take all the signals off and use hand signals. how often do you really use them? in tx if you have signals they have too work but you can take them all off still legal. just an idea:evil:

Replace the bolt that holds the 'headlight to the fork bracket' with the turn signal bolt. (That is the main bolt that is part of the turn signal).
Use spacers and washers as necessary
