Got mine in the mail yesterday and will get put in this weekend. Great idea, as I continue to drive around the world to the right. LOL

I installed mine today and found that I couldn't hear it with the cover on. So my simple solution was to drill several small holes in the green lens to act like a speaker cover and now I can hear it fine. Keep up the great ideas Guys.

All I had in the package was the buzzer/bulb, your business card and the receipt. I did drill several small(1/64) holes in the green lens that goes over the bulb.

Well I just finished the install. Honestly I'm a little disappointed. The YouTube video is a bit misleading, on my truck the "old style" blinker bubble even with the holes drilled is not even close to the loudness of the buzzer portrayed in the video. With the noise level inside the truck, I'd be hard pressed to hear it, I faintly heard it over the low air buzzer, so with the vehicle running I have doubts.
On the buzzer itself, I barely touched the side of the bulb and it separated from the base, and I mean BARELY TOUCHED it. Was it worth the money? That is up to you, but it's a neat idea. My 2 cents...

If you want I'd be more than happy to post a video. It's a simple install, I even read the instructions. I don't know why the one I got isn't anywhere near as loud as the one in the video, I just posted my results.

when you say the bulb separates from the base do you mean the bulb looses contact in the socket in the turn signal switch when you wiggle it because we had one truck that happened to and we had to use a small pair of needle nose and squeeze the socket in the turn signal switch just a hair and problem gone i think the sides of the socket sides were spread apart from over the years of bulb changes or bouncing around
