Custom Dynamic LED lights
I just instal my LED lights from custom dynamic which was the 8" plasma rods, LED rear lights and the Tri-bar rear fender light. Everything was straight forward easy instal with easy to follow instructions. I really wanted the brake light flasher which would strobe flash all my rear lights and dim the LED running lights down, but they have no brake light flasher for the 2014 street glide yet. Well what I ended up doing was removing my LED brake/turn/running/ light and putting the factory bulb back in. The reason was the LED light was so bright that it look like my brake light was stuck on and most drivers behind me was thinking I was riding my brakes, yes they are that bright with just running lights and I'll keep them until custom dynamic comes out with a way to dim them down to match the other lights on the rear of my bike. I can say all my lights from custom dynamic is well worth there money.

Added Radiantz Custom Flexible LED Array
Since running the Plasma Rods as my only turn signals when I have the Tour-Pak off, I was concerned with visibility of the near side blinkers being blocked by the saddle bag.
I put a Radiantz Custom Flexible LED Array under the fender tip light.
The array is split in two, one side left blinker, the other right blinker. Both light up with the brake like the Plasma rods. I wired these straight into the stock turn signal plugs in the rear taillight using H-D metal pins and the plastic plugs.
I'm really happy with the visibly of the brakes and turns at any angle from the rear now.
Some picts:
OFF close up; OFF far; RIGHT TURN; BRAKE.

Finally got my rods installed and it was a simple process especially with the MPR-BCM. Wiring was a snap. Just remember some earlier posts that state tapping into the orange wire are inaccurate unless you want the rods to work when you are in accessory mode. Both Oranges (if you have the TFC3's) should go to the blue wire.
14FLHX your brackets are great, fit perfectly and made the install easy. Thanks again for taking the time to engineer and sell them to the rest of us. Biggest pain was removing the antenna bracket which was really no big deal. I didn't try drilling through as I don't really use FM and I have a hidden antenna.
Love the look and the extra visibility of the rods.

I have this setup on my dyna, but I had to buy the converter for the led's, do you have to buy that for the 14's? Or do you take the bulbs out and replace with the led bulb? I also bought the box where you can have either or all tail lights flashing or no flash when you apply the brakes.
What exactly is that bracket for??

I will be making more brackets in a few weeks.
