Any ideas on where I can get some green plastic or glass rod to reflect the light through the boss cap?
What sort of size did you have in mind?Did you consider just poking round LEDs directly through the plastic? I imagine it would be possible to shape the ends to fit flush.

Like this...?
I did think about that but I wasn't keen on the idea of the bulbs poking up through the plastic cap.
I'm using the green/brown trace wire on the flasher relay to work the repeater light. This works fine for the LED and the little beeper I have connected as well. However, when a normal bulb is connected it causes the whole circuit to flash quickly when the stalk is in the middle/off position. Signaling left or right, it works fine, and with the hazard's it works fine as well. But with the ignition on, the rapid flashing starts again as soon as the stalk is returned to the middle position. There seems to be about 7v flowing from this wire with the ignition on and with the stalk in the middle/off position.
Any idea what's going on here? Why does it work fine with the LED's and the hazard's but not with a normal bulb?

Maybe I misunderstood - aren't you proposing to poke bits of plastic/glass up through the plastic cap? I don't see how it makes any difference from the outside, assuming that whatever it is you having poking through will need to be shaped to match the surface.v8s4me said:
Does that make sense?
I may be missing the point, but I assume you're going to shape whatever it is poking through to sit flush with the outer surface - I don't see how it makes any difference whether the thing you shape is a bit of plastic rod or the plastic body of an LED.
