i done these a while ago but after i got the parts (from UK to AUS) i realised i had forgot to order something to hold the number plate on, so out came a bit of stainless and grinder! yea i know the indicators are a bit goofy on there, can anybody recommend any other types of indicators?
i thought it was about time to get some pics up!

| I made the same type thing except I used the two torx screws at the edge of the tail piece, and the bracket angles the opposite way. I did that because I wanted to minimize the plate's obstruction of the kicked-up light feel of the tail of my bike. Yours look good though as well. | |

Sorry for the third post, but I just found some better pics of these lights that I took during the tail chop/light install process in case any of you were interested in them...
As you might be able to tell from the last picture, they just barely extend past the radius of the plastic part, but it's barely noticeable. PS - you'll need to change your blinker to use these. Got mine from Pep Boys for about $11. |

turn signals are safer but not required in MI. although for night riding i did add LED bolts to secure the plate, which act as turn signals but can only be seen at night. |
