OK, here we go. Yes with all the visiting from ORP I was able to find time to continue with this project.

Hmmmm, which is which.......

I'm voting LED's for safety with the sequentials, it's a subtle mod that can easily be undone.(well not the LEDS) I always watch for the old T-birds and Shelbys to see the lights work. I started out with a set from Mustang project but they never worked quite right, I switched to Northwest mustangs set and they work great.

Go sequential, and definitely go LED.

The sequential lights look better in the '67-'69 than they do in the '65/'66, because it looks like 3 separate lenses, and they're spaced out more.

In all my time around, i don't think john has ever been wrong!

I have the Mustang Project sequential's on my 67 and are quite happy with them. Since there's no wiring modifications, they're easily removed by just replacing the circuit board Led bulb unit with a standard bulb in the existing socket, and your back to stock.

I am going LED and will experiment between sequential vs non later down the road. Since it is the flasher itself that makes the difference, it will be an easy change over.

You can also get an extra flasher, and use it for the emergency light flasher. That's what I did in my '69, so even the emergency flashers are sequential.

Craig was nice enough to send me his sequential flasher assembly to try out. I installed it tonight and shot a couple videos to compare. Check 'em out.

The jury is still out on this one. Im not sure if im feeling the sequential lights. :conf

I will say, the seq's are far more interesting than stock.

I don't care, I like the sequentials.

And I plan to get a set for my '66, even if the '66 lenses aren't split up nicely like the 67/68

of course what I REALLY want is this:

But too much scratch for that. (see pic #4 for easy install)

I vote for the sequentials, Craig!

I tried both and went with the non-sequential for one reason. When I drove my car, which was every day, it took too long for the sequence to do it's thing. Here in CA on the freeways making a lane change with two blinks of the flasher is the norm. In the same span of time that two normal blinks show, the sequential ones wouldn't be done with one sequence. Just took too long for me.
Definitley like the LED's though.
