Previously I had experimented with a set of Japanese-market CBR400 rear turn signals fitted to the '86-87 VFR 700/750. Those were clear lens LEDs and I fitted them to the OEM signal mount tabs.
Here, I wanted to try installing a set of amber lens reproductions to an aftermarket fender eliminator bracket. I could see it would be tight but turns out they actually fit nice and snug to the fairing and license plate. In fact, I had to notch out the plate just a bit to squeeze it into place.

A side benefit of these particular eBay signals is that they use incandescent bulbs so no resistors are necessary, as is the case with LED lights.
I think the amber color is more suited to the classic character of the VFR. And the streamlined mounting position is surely better looking than the gangly monsters mandated by the DOT back in the day.
