Default Show me your custom tail lights.

I'm looking for some ideas on what to go with for some new taillights, because one of mine came loose and now it's stripped. Electrical tape is currently holding it together...

I'm thinking flush mounts would be nice.

Something like these here: https://www.denniskirk.com/alloy-art...prd/215139.sku


Here is a picture I found:

Buy a module to convert your signals into run/brake/turn and eliminate the center taillight.

Those look great! Even the brake light on the fender looks good, and I don't even really like those types of brake lights, lol. Cool bike

I would actually like to do that eventually. I don't know a whole lot about wiring and stuff though, and I also don't have my own shop at the moment, so it's kind of difficult for me to do much of anything right now really.

I have the Indian Larry question mark led tail light on my 48. I swear it is the first thing people always ask about. Not cheap though. I don't run any turn signals front or rear so its the only light I have. If I was computer literate I would post a pic.

It simply plugs in under the seat. It will be harder to remove he seat then plugging it in...

I installed it last week in under 10 minute including the seat removal...

I went by the HD dealer last weekend to get a couple filters and they had a LED tail light display on the wall. You pushed a button and they lit up. Much brighter than the stock tail light, so i picked one up : )

Get rid of the center light and just go with the turn signals, use the Harley module.
