New Taillights


For Christmas Wendy got me a couple of items from my wish list; one of which was a Turn Signal Conversion Kit from Cruiser Customizing. Kit consists of a pair of LED rings that you glue (they even provided the silicon glue!) to the inside of your turn signal lenses. Snake a wire thru the turn signal stems and up under the pillion where you splice into the existing wiring, using the provided sealed solid state circuit packs and provided splices. Everything needed to install was provided.

The lights operate exactly as advertized. The LEDS shine red through the amber lenses providing red running lights. Tap the brakes and they brighten along with the stock light. Lose that one stock bulb and you are no longer totally dark. The LEDS pull their ground through the turn signal bulbs, on hot side of the turn signal. When the turn signals light the associated LEDS go dark.

In my humble opinion, well worth the $50.
