Welcome to the forum. Make sure you introduce yourself in the "new member introductions" section, and complete your profile / create a sig line so we know what you ride.
The Voyager and Vaq signals are different... The Voyager's are larger. There's only one place you can buy clear or smokes lenses for the Vaq, and no places you can buy any for the Voyager. "Lights4all" has both a website (based in Germany) and an eBay store. In Europe, they call the Vaq a "Voyager Custom". I changed out my turn signals for a set from a Vaq, and put the clear lenses on all round. I have chromed amber filament type bulbs in the rear, and led switchbacks in the front (with load equalizing resistors to keep the flash rate the same). Here's an old video of the result... I've changed out the headlight for a JW Speaker LED since then.

Hows it going? I'm curious, how do i know what resistors to get to keep the flashing equal? I'm looking at some cheap led switchback strips from ebay to put in the front vents on the vaquero and remove the bar up front. I got some help from a facebook opage earlier on the wiring. it seems simple, but im not sure on the resistors, and the person that helped me didnt use resistors.

They are not typical resistors you are thinking about. I will keep it simply and get "load equalizers" on Ebay or Amazon.

As a general rule you want the lens the same colour as the LED however I opted to go clear in front as I think the light going from white to orange attracts more attention than simply getting brighter when signalling. Superbright LED makes a great switchback bulb that is bright and have used in two of my bikes now.
The clear or smoked lenses are expensive with shipping BTW. A group buy would be better and split the shipping IMO.

I bought some and had shipped to UK and friend visiting will bring for me - thanks for offer.
The front signals are more difficult to replace than the rear IMO and decided to stick with stock and change the lens and bulbs to LED instead. |

Hi guys,
I sent a message through eBay to see what shipping would be to Jersey and more importantly to make sure the lenses you talked about earlier will fit my 15 Vaquero before purchasing them for the front and back. Any help confirming Fitment? Ed |

Can you post any photos of the finished product with the new lenses?
