Are front and rear turn signals same, can I put fronts on rear ?

[Whipitnow]

  My rear turn signal bar has collasped because the rubber groumets holding the lights up have broken down.

         Can I use front turn signals for rear with the front rubber groumets, are they the same ?

     Thanks for help.

Yes they are the same with the added benefit of being dual filament. You can now have additional running lights in the rear if you choose. I am going to do this mod when it's time to change the rear tire. I am going to tie into the front running lights so that when you use your turn signal the running light shuts off for more contrast. I believe there is a diagram on Chets Rattlebars page with the wiring diagram. If you do the additional running lights keep in mind to be legal ( in most states anyway ) you will need to change out the amber lenses for red. Phat Performance sells them for 14 bucks for the pair.

Whipitnow,
There are a lot of threads on here about converting your rear lights to running/brake/turn. I used valkyrie fronts in my rears just switching out the sockets. I used the Hopkins trailer convertor #46365. This a powered convertor that gave me the best results using LED's. Good luck.
