Moving the Stella turn signal "alarm" in glove box

Post by ScootLemont »

I didnt want to hijack Eric's thread on instructions to replace the stock turn signal "alarm" so I started this one

Has any one moved the Stella turn signal alarm?
I am thinking it would be better to have it mounted inside the glove box.

After putting one piece of tape on the stock "alarm" it is quiet enough from in front of the scooter that it no longer sounds like a truck backing up but....
from the riding position, it is too quite to be a good reminder that I left a turn signal on.

I am guessing one of the reasons it is located where it is, is so pedestrians know a scooter is making a turn near them.... otherwise it would be on the other side of the leg shield right?

So... has anyone moved their turn signal "alarm" inside their glove box?

Uh, yeah, I can only hear mine while stopped. Makes it about 50% effective, but 0% annoying. :)
