I mentioned that with 2 diodes and a beeper, you can have and audio reminder that your turn signals are still on, cost around $15 for parts, and $20 for installation (if interested).
This involves tapping the front turn signal light, connecting a diode, and the connecting the diodes together to the beeper and then the beeper to ground. This is a very simple solution, and I have seen kits (for motor cycles) for around $15.
If you are lucky enough to have a THREE wire blinker module the 3rd pin can be use to operate the beeper.

This is exactly what I did to install my audible blinkers. And, if you are like me and hate the reverse buzzer, repurpose it for the "beeper". It's just a piezo buzzer and works perfectly for this conversion. I'm not an electrician so please tell me if I wired incorrectly but it's been working fine for 2 years now.
