I kind of like the factory turns but don't like where they sit, sticking out too far. Does any one use this HD kit? Click here Please post a picture, I'd like to see how it looks. Thanks!

I don't use their kit but it's super easy to just take the signal arms off and mount them directly to the struts with some shorter bolts.like so

When I first changed out my rear sigs I bought some led bullet lights and used the standard Fat Bob stand-offs. They hugged the strut and were very bright. Here's a pic. I still have the sigs if your interested. PM me.

That's what I want! Do you put spacer between the strut and turn?

You can buy stand-offs as short as 3/4" on ebay. That puts the bullet about 1/2" out from the strut.
