Default how did you get them to mount on the fender filler strips?

I just purchased these also, and want to mount them on the fender filler strips for the same reason. How did you go about getting the flat surface of the plasma rod (with the tape) to mate up to the curved back-side (unpainted) of the fender filler strips?

You don't. The Plasma rod is designed to shine in line with the long side of the strip. So you must mount it to the side of the saddlebags or the side of the filler strip or the side of the fender with the lights pointed straight back

Default Run/Turn/Brake Installation

How did you wire up your plasma rods so that it is Run/Turn/Brake? The reason I ask is because I have had a hard time getting mine to do all three. I wired it up the way it was instructed on custom dynamics but that was no where near right. Just hoped that you could help me out so I can save some money by not taking it to someone.

Used the Harley run -turn-signal setup and installed the plasma rods . They are as they say. Bought the led tailight also for my RK from Dave at Custom Dyanmics, ran into him in Daytona , great guy and a great product. Only thing I would like to see is the tape included inthe package instead of on the rods themself so you can install them the way you want. I removed the tape on one and and installed it on the other side so I could run the wires from both rods in the same direction.
