    It has been a few years since I rewired my 53 hornet, but it used a 3 prong flasher and the third prong was for the indicator light.

    Other option might be to have a left and right indicator light and wire both from your switch.

    It depends on the year.  My '50 only has one pilot light, while my '54 has two.

     I put LED tail lights on my modified Hupmobile with one of those chrome directional switches with regular bulbs on front. I even tried the electronic flasher, but they still would not work correctly until I installed two little pilot lites. They sell them at the car flea markets for $3 each 2 for $5. Small sealed units much like the original Hudson pilot. After I put the pilots in everything works fine.
