I have done this mod 3 times. Once for my self, then my Step Mom and my Uncle. It was easy but i hope i dont have to go it again. Its getting boring. What I did chose to do and I hope my family doesn't copy is to get some 8inch leds from custom dynamics and run them along my saddle bag support bracket facing the ground at a 45 degree angle and wire them into my turn signals before the run/turn/brake module so that they light up only when my turn signal is on. I did this because on my way to work in the dark a guy that works with me was behind me and said that if he didn't know my bike, he wouldn't know where i was going because my plasma rods were too close to my brake light. I didn't know if he was pulling my leg or not so i let my step mom lead one day and i saw exactly what he was talking about. I mounted my plasmas to the fender so it looked like it was blending in. When I did the led mod it clearly identifies which direction I am intending to go.

 

Iceman24,

I really like the write-up. Well done, but I love the shoes in pic. 14.....

HAHA - yes, that's my son holding the brake so I could snap the pic. Nice catch...!

 

I just had to bust your ***** on that....

Just in good fun.

I like the way you did the 1/4 round, but do you think you lost some of the light because of aim?

 

Awesome definitely a mod I'm looking to do soon!

 

You gain more light to the rear with the moulding. If you mount them diredtly to the side panels, the light is directed towards the back of your bags.
