The forum strikes again. Something else I now have to save some money for! Looks nice.

Very nice looking!

Is it easy to access everywhere the light needs to be wired in/connected to when installing?

Its really easy. 20 minutes and I was done. The hardest part was removing the bottom shock bolts and lifting the *** end to get enough room, but other than that the wiring snapped right in to the existing harness.

What are your thoughts on using it as a primary brake light? If someone was to get rid of the turn/run/brake signals? Bright enough?

It's wicked bright. So definitely replacing the running and brake lights. Not sure about the turn signals. That's like removing the reflectors, it's clean but not functional so that's your call.

Thanks for the response. The turn signals I want arent dual filament at least i think they arent, so this might fix my problem.

Nice. I was wondering how you got between the fender and the tire to run the wiring.

I'm curious how the light mounts to the fender...

I have a 1200L and I'm looking for some tail lamp replacements... wondering if I could chop my fender then run this light.

It's 3M. That **** doesn't move either. Wipe it down with alcohol and stick it. It also comes with wire clips that attach with 3M to run the harness up the middle of your fender.
