My car doesn't have the "flippers." 90-91 convertibles have special turn signals.

I kind of like them, they are different, sort of gives the car a cockpit feel, then again, I just dislike gargantuan, 2 foot levers coming offthe steering coloumn, reminds me of old sleds and such.

I like the look of the 90-91 convertible signals better, but they're a pain to use because they don't click. They're that newer electronic style. Changing lanes with your signals can be a pain at first because when you go to flip the lever back it's very easy to turn the other side on.

Do you have a picture of those signals? I'd like to see what it looks like.

This is the only one I could find. It's from when I was putting the car together after I had it painted.

It was standard. They used them to clear the airbag. 90-91 convertibles have an airbag.
