I'd recommend that you guys also look at LED bulbs. I had similar chrome ones, and while they look ace when off, they are rather dim when illuminated with a less crisp color. Also the chroming makes the flash less apparent as there is more cut-off of the light during the fade in and out part of the light cycle. I tried a set of cheapo LEDs on Ebay and resistors, and they were worlds better. The difference in brightness could be the difference between someone seeing your signal on a bright day, and someone catching it too late.
