Do you know if the 97+ turn signals still use an 1157 size socket? Did you have to wire up a load resistor on the fronts just like the back?

Will a mechanical one work?!?! I ditched the thermal one for the mechanical one a long time ago...

My nephew got an early-70s bus from his church that he was going to convert to a flatbed. It had a mechanical flasher. It had a motor-driven switch that you could hear when the turn signal was turned on.
