As a wrap up on the porthole project, I wanted to share what parts I used and where I got them. Not that anyone will want to duplicate this project on a 60-66, but in case someone wants to add lights to a Buick, and old custom, or anything else, the parts I used were:
1954 Buick Porthole reproductions came from:

I added two LED bolts to each porthole.
One amber 6mm for the parking light circuit, and one amber 16mm (with lens) for the sequential turn signals. They were sourced from Oznium –

WebElectric Products provided the sequencer kit (Part number STS-4) -
This is a shot of a two circuit module. The 4 circuit looks the same but has more wires sticking out:

WebElectric was the only outfit I could find that offered sequencing for 4 lamps instead of only 3. Once I figured out the circuitry it was very simple to hook up. Being solid state it should be very dependable.
And here are my greatly simplified wiring instructions, for turn signals only - when brake lights will not be involved in the installation:
That's about it for now until some other idea pops in my head!
