Tom,
You should go with Progressive shocks. They fit, work well, and are available. The turn signal lens should be available through one of the online shops, or Yamaha.
If money is tight, (and I know that one) try Andreas. If he has the parts, they are reasonable, and in the shape he say's they are, or better.

Tom,
Progressive is a brand name. They have the good fork springs, and you WILL notice a difference once they are in. They also have rear spring/shocks that fit and look nice/work great. It's what I use on "daily ride", and will be on the project as well.
Here is a link to the web site with some of the best prices on the parts. http://www.mawonline.com/
Enjoy the bike, as it will give you years of service if cared for.
