Okay here is where i'm at. I got the rear end torn apart. The rear lights all plug into a harness under the seat. Then the harness is connected to the taillight. Then the turn signals connect to ports inside the taillight one left and one right. So how am I going to wire up the lights without having to use this taillight? (Im assuming your going to tell me to get a wire tester and find out which ones work then hand wire it) Im just hoping there is an easier way. I ordered the run/brake/turn module today so the signals are all I need. If its too much of a hassle I might run a side-brakelight and say screw the signals. Input??

paid 300 to have the fender holes filled and fender repainted.

Heres a crude schematic I drew up when I did mine. Traces the wires through the taillight circuit board. Easy...

I have an 09 streetbob if you need any measurments. i also made a license plate holder for the right hand side, the left side has a solo bag. just to keep the plate off the fender, but i did make a plate for the inspection sticker to fit on the orginal tail light. this also keeps the water from slinging back foward and up the fender and on my back.
