35 Directional Signal Lights

I'm planning on buying a directional signal kit for my 35 convertible sedan.
I'm aware a person can conveniently use the rear tail lites for that purpose.
However, what type of lights should I be looking to buy for the front of my car?
I would guess it needs to be a set that can be mounted on the front bumper.
 
I'm considering purchasing a set wireless of turn signals designed for a bicycle application.

If I get this kit, I will make magnetic bases so I can take them on and off. It looks like you can recharge them with a simple USB charger.
This seems to eliminate the problem of running wires to connect them all together.

Look into the many small motorcycle light available. Many will replicate the buckets of you headlights and can be mounted under the light using the trim/retaining ring.
 
Amber fog lights work well. Used them once on a '37.

That is what I set mine up with Unity foglamps with a 49-50 Ford column switch SXTS-B FoMoCo . Clamps on to steering column .

I use DPDT relays to enable the stock stop and parking bulbs to work as turn signals. The 3W uses the cowl lights ,and the roadster uses bulbs in the headlights. The turn signal feed is switched on and the other feeds are removed. It has worked just fine for many years. I only have a small on off on switch on the column to ground the relays. Nobody can see it.
