flashing Indicator lights

On our trikes we don't need flashing indicators at the front of the trike, we can mount forward facing indicators on each of the rear wheel mudguards (together with the rear facing indicators).
To cut down on the number of light units fitted does anyone know of a single flashing indicator light unit that incorporates both forward and rearward facing lights? I searched t'internet but no joy.

You're after a light unit or a flasher relay?
If it's lights, give Wynne a try at JW Motorcycles. He posts here under the name Draken & gives a discount to forum members. He stocks a huge range of bike/trike lights. Tell him we sent you.

They use twin lens lamps on some commercial vehicles, but generally they are marker lamps with a red lens for the back and a white one for the front, bloody ugly big rubber things they are. Lenses are interchangable so theres no reason you couldn`t swap them for two amber ones, if you can find something you like the look of.
The Rubbolite model 22 aint too bad a lookin lamp though.

sorry brant think i miss understood what you was asking there, must of bin a blond moment, its actual the light units your looking for, i think t.bones look quiet good quality, as in the past i have brought cheeper lights then found the slitest vibration they stop working

Hi tBone.
Thanks for putting me on to Rubbolite. Definitely the sort of thing I'm after so I looked at their catalogue. Couldn't find anything in keeping stylewise though, shame.
