I suspect I'm not the only one that finds my indicators don't shut off after taking a corner. I say that because I noticed Quicksilver (David) had his indicator n for aaaaages when I was following him recently.
Is there a solution?

I have a coloured disc on the indicator arm which lines up with a hole on the steering wheel when the indicators are off. It's quite good, but I occasionally still fail to cancel and it's dangerous if you're indicating left and pass a junction with a car waiting to pull out.
Audible buzzers are available but I don't like them.

Driving through Ashridge park the other evening an Aston was following me. He started flashing at me and waving. I thought it was because he was appreciating my car so I felt quite smug and waived back - then I realised he was hailing me because my indicators had not cancelled  I am having huge issues with my indicators failing to cancel. I wondered if it was due to the Morgan Park steering column and stalks I had fitted.

There's a device called an Audicator, which sounds an audible alarm after x number of flashes, with the sound getting louder with time. It's intended for motorcyclists, who have the same problem. I got one for my last Roadster, but hadn't got around to fitting it. Come the summer, I see about fitting it to this Roadster...

I have an accessory that sits in the passenger seat that lets me know my indicators are still on. Its a sometimes very useful accessory, it can also tell you when you are exceeding the speedlimit and if you are driving too reckless. It has the ability to know what other drivers are going to do and also acts as a early warning device. I sometimes forget to put this accessory in when I go for a drive and its then that I remember that I also have a radio in the car as I can hear a different sound to the usual static.

Looks complicated - http://www.audicator.com/documentation/Audicator_detailed_fitting_instructions.pdfIt looks a bit big and ugly - where would it go in a Morgan? It needs to be discretely hid.

The PROBLEM is we have them over here as well and they constantly give off a moan and cost a bloody fortune. I keep looking in Halfords to see if they have a new for old .
