I think, just get 2 blinking LED. 1 for left, another for right, tap the electric from constant 12v then add a 1k resistor. Should be working.

alternative, go get the circuit for the LED to blink blink, then link it up and install it on your dashboard :D

using the self blinking led will be much easier..doesnt need any circuit to make.

Blinking LEDs? Won't be a little Ah Beng? These days, people will know that blinking LEDs are usually associated with cheap alarm systems. The good ones are stealth. No blinking LEDs or visible sensors.

If the colour is red or green, it is ok. Not those blue or white LEDs... damn bright! Telling the whole world that you have a cheap alarm system...

My CCTV-in-a-car project is almost complete. Now doing some test. No need for shit alarm system when u can record the activity status of the car 24x7 wirelessly.

 

[khguan]
