Just mounted up my new signals last night. I'm thinking about mounting side signals under the subframe too.

| very clean install, I think the subframe is a good idea. until you do it nobody on the side of you can see your blinkers | |

| Thanks 03. I have some 5mm amber LEDs that I'll be mounting on the sides where the plastic tray meets the passenger pegs. That way there will be side-facing signals too. Probably just drill a couple of holes and flush mount them from behind. | |

| Sprayed the pods with truck bed liner from Auto Zone. Matches the peg spars. I need to get a small paint brush and cut in some more black around the LEDs themselves. The pods used to be chrome. | |

| I get the idea, but what do you do when you want to take off your passenger pegs? | |

| Tell me about it. I soldered up a full perf board of LEDs for my tail on my bike and forgot to wire in the resistor for a 13.9V circuit instead of the 9v I used to test with. Fried 50 LEDs in 1/2sec. Ouch. I'll be redoing it once I get my bulk order this next week. | |
