Default Calling all under fender brake light owners!

Right I'm planning on fitting solid struts and slamming my fender to my 190 rear tyre.
What a want to do is fit a LED brake light under the fenders rear edge.
I did a search but only found threads on the Harley made one but I don't want to see it and the Harley one looks massive.
Anyone have a led under fender brake light which fits what I'm after and would like to share with pics.
Cheers

You're in luck! Here is a link to my old led brake light.


and here is a pic of my new one (finished installing it last night)

all lights were purchased from chromeglow.com The new light with turns ( you can see them in the first pic ) ran me like 50 bucks for everything.

LOL your vids are like mine I enjoyed seeing you run up to switch the signals then run back to get the shot. The led look good might do that when & if i get some extra $

There is a guy on here with a highly customized bike that has a slim LED under the fender that looks awesome! Can't think go his name but his bike has tons of sweet mods on it and has a lot of brass parts!

Look for it, worth your time

Cheers for that, a lot of good ideas there. I found this thanks to your info on chromeglow but I wonder how bright it is, there's a video on you tube and it doesn't look that bright

When I say massive I mean you see more red lense than I would like plus it doesn't follow to shape of the fender alone the bottom edge, it's just straight across in a line which would stop me slamming the fender to the tyre as close as I'm hoping to get it.
This is the look I'm going to try for and the Harley one I don't think would allow me to



Something like this but thinner
