    I prefer having the windows cracked over air conditioning and have a couple long sweeping 90 degree turns off the interstate ramp where the signals always fail to cancel. Yes, my hearing is actually pretty good and even with the windows up one has to really listen to hear them blinking. Any helpful solutions would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Maybe they could be a touch louder but not more than that. Otherwise it could be annoying.

    I like them low. I’d rather there be loud noises when the coolant temp gets high, or the oil level gets low, you know, before engine failure.

    pinstripes. lots of pinstripes.
    Here you go. For the low price of $50 you can fix it, but not having the people behind you thinking you're senile - how can you put a price on that?

    After working in a nuke submarine engine room and years of loud guitar playing, I have not heard a car blinker in probably 30 years. Yes, I am that guy going down the road with his blinker on. :)

    No worries, you're just letting them know that you are driving around the world to the left....or right.....

    I have more important things to think about than turn signals whether their loud enough or not.

    Or you know, go back to the old fashioned habit of making sure they cancel after every use.

    But I guess I'm the crazy one for doing that. :cookiemonster:
