I've seen a bike with green spots on the front. What a twat I say, they're like giving the green light to be hit
Hiya fella, I've bought and fitted these to my boxeye and they make a hell of a diffence. Will get a pic up asap. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2X-10W-Cree-LED-Work-Light-Spot-Lamp-Driving-Fog-ATV-Motorcycle-4WD-Boat-UK-SHIP-/331903321625?hash=item4d46fac619:g:BMsAAOSwbYZXf0sFUsed a fuse tap to link into a switched circuit on the bike http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2pc-Add-A-Circuit-Mini-Blade-Fuse-Splice-Holder-ATM-APM-Piggy-Back-Fuses-Tap-12V-/151973106702?hash=item23624d940e:g:3HQAAOSw3ydV5lbw I've bolted them straight to the top bolt of the radiator side plate. I know what you're thinking but a damaged rad is the least of my worries if the bike goes down hard.

I'm waiting for it to turn up but just noticed it says "mini blade". That's put a proper spanner in the works as I need it for tomorrow morning, anyone know of a shop that sells them?
Hi Darrsi,I made exactly the same mistake a few weeks back regarding the mini blade taplink.It's a pisser when you wait for the delivery, you're all set to get on with the project and the wrong foccing thing drops out of the envelope.I feel for ya bud.

What size fuse are you meant to use for these 10w LED lights?
All fitted now, but for some unknown reason my indicator beeper now only works with the spotlights switched off?Dunno what's going on there?All i know is that it was bloody cold outside.
I just wondered as I'm crap with electronics too and I'm just looking for the simplest way to wire it all up. I think I'm going to just wire up directly to the battery and hope I don't ever forget to turn them off
I bought a handlebar waterproof on/off switch, and the only place the fuze tap would fit was on my air horn wiring.I don't wire anything direct to the battery, it's generally a bad idea in case you forget to switch off.My mate did the wiring for me, i'm shit at electrics, but he never went near the beeper wiring.It did all work correctly if the lights were wired directly to the battery though.

If you can wire a plug you can do this and ignition off will mean ALL off
