Wired in some decent dash indicator lights as the standard ones are way too small and dim .Was constantly leaving indicators on which was dangerous

Over nearly 8 years of ownership I have developed the technique (and habit) of keeping my fingers on the turn switch while the indicators are selected - cancelling the switch as soon as I actually start to turn as a result I very seldom forget to cancel!

The easiest way is: not using the indicator lights - as I do. ;D
