I installed a diffrent style but the same watts and filiment, but when I apply the blinker switch they don't blink they just shine. What may be the problem?

You need to replace your stock flasher with a round automotive flasher like the one in this pic. About 4 bucks at the parts store.

would not happen to have a part number so I do not have to do the trial and error thing. The stock one is a 3 prong.

Are you sure it's a 3 prong? Mine is a 2 prong, Buss 552/536. If yours is a three prong, just take your old one with you and match it up to a Buss Flasher, standard automotive.

Got a standard 3 prong and the lights will not even shine. I can plug the OE relay in and get light but no blink action??????

Hey just saw this thread and looks like these are the same sigs I put in the rear. Got 'em 'cause I couldn't find anything else with dual-filament, but I do like the look. Now I just need to get some to match in the front. The stock signals are like big black protruding plastic tumors, aren't they? ;-)

Yep, a golf tee. I had just finished synching my carbs with an auxiliary tank when that pic was taken.
