Cheapo turn signal

So my bike was down last week and the left turn signal was broken. I want to have a replacement. I don't really care about aesthetic. I just need something that works and cheap (compare to OEM ~ $40). I came across some ebay signals. Anybody have these ? Do they need additional relay to work ?
Any suggestions are appreciated.

Shouldn't need any special relay as they're incandescent and not LED.

eBay would be your best bet.

Alright, so I bought the above signals and installed to my bike. Just normal bulb, not LED. I kept the rear OEM signals. All the signals blinked. But much faster than before. Also, there were some noises came from the relay I believe. The noises were similar to this one (at 0:55). An electric relay will likely solve the problems ? If so, which relay ?

Self update: I bought a Tridon EL12 from Autozone to replace the original Relay. Everything works now.
