with the front blinkers on a FC

1/ is there a earth wire or is the "blinker bulb holder" earthed to the body?

2/ is there a bracket or clip to hold the assembly (bulb etc) to the body???? and if there is a clip does anyone have a couple of spares please ;D

thanks heaps

   The blinker bulb holder is earthed when it is pushed in to the body of the blinker which in turn is earth by the guard. No clips are required as the bulb holder is a push in type the same as the rear tail lights.

        If it is the bulb it self that is bouncing around you could have broken springs inside the bulb holders as they keep the bulbs & the connection tight in the holder.

Try spreading the claw-like spring clips before you go out & replace them.
