Thank you for the comments!
I didn't know there might be an issue with the directional flasher.
Now I'll know what to do if there is.

That happened to me and I had to find a different flasher. LEDs draw much less current that a normal bulb.

I do not remember which one I bought, but here is an example:

12 Volt 3 Pin Flasher for Golf Carts with LED Lights | Golf Car Catalog
Thanks AJ....just ordered it and will give it a try

All carts should have the light bar not head lights.I have never been blinded by a light bar either head on or from behind.

Still would like to know this if anyone does.

No, Liquid Lights does not replace headlights. They installed amber/white front flippers on my cart. I asked them about headlights - no.

Since I bought my cart from Carts and Clubs, I had them install LED headlights.

I seen cart coming down the trail I thought Freight Train had derailed coming down the street Single LED that Blinded anybody Including cars it faces. Sure the cart driver could see (LIKE DAYLIGHT out in front of him) but nobody else could. Gave me headache right off. Guess the drunks got to see on the way home. If I was that blind I'd just stay home at night.

A cart southbound on Morse yesterday had driving light on the front of his roof like an off road vehicle. Looks cool and I'm sure It helps but how about oncoming carts?
We were in our car so couldn't tell.

I'd guess as long as the light was directed down to the pathway it wouldn't have a blinding effect on oncoming drivers. I think it would be wise for someone who does install aux lighting to have a friend drive toward them to see if it is a problem, and adjust accordingly.

You can buy LED replacement bulbs at a local auto parts store for the turn signals. Much brighter and visible in daytime..however, with older carts only replace the front bulbs as your turn signals are dependent on the thermal resistance load to trigger the flasher and replacing all 4 turn signal light bulbs will not generate enough load to trigger the flasher.

Bought a 2014 cart from Villages Discount Carts. Came with led head and tail lights. But they very bright for CARTS ahead. Asked tech about adjusting them and just took a blade screw driver and prided the top of the light down a bit. Much better.

Hi We have LED lights on our cart. Dan from Liquid Lights does a great job. They also can put lights under the carriage of the cart or lights under cabinets in the kitchen. I saw one woman did lights on her lani. They also come with a fabb that will change the colors, etc. His card can be obtained through the Village Golf cart place. They make your cart much safer at night as well.

Tell them Janet or Laura sent you...!!
