I have had a very close near miss recently because of this situation and am resolved to rectify one or other if not both.

Happy and safe New year to everyone,

Hi Barry, many years ago I fitted an audible bleeper as I could nether see the dash board flashers or hear the clicking when using aero screens in strong daylight. It is a three pin unit that simply replaces the existing flasher relay and at the time Lotus seven owners were fitting them. Initially it was still too quiet so I drilled a small hole through each flat of the plastic casing then used electrical tape to seal them back up, untaped one hole at a time until I got the right volume, too many holes untaped and it sounded like a bin lorry. Simple and cheap,the unit is pre canbus at the age of your car and has no effect on the dash lights unfortunately. Had a quick search with no luck but there must be some available somewhere. If not perhaps Brian and Pauls suggestion of an Audicator will do the job.
