the company is based behind squires biker cafe so could pop in there and grab them if you fancy a ride out.
but the free postage makes it a no brainer really!

What happens when you have the tail lights or brakes on and you are indicating at the same time ? Do they just default to the original indicators ?

Re: LED rear lights vs standard (OEM) ones - Enceladus - 04-05-13

when braking the half of the light thats indicating cuts out to show the indicators and then back on again.
gives a better effect than just a brake light in my opinion as its more "unusual" to the regular "cager".

All worse except when braking IMO. The LEDs make the brake light stand out more.

Do you then take your orginal indicators off?

Re: LED rear lights vs standard (OEM) ones - Chris - 05-05-13

Looks good. Think I'd get a smoked set instead of clear but certainly looks bright 8)

Chris

thought about smoked, but for me the clear lens fitted in better with the rest of the bike.

Re: LED rear lights vs standard (OEM) ones - simonm - 05-05-13

I forgot to mention that I think it looks great, good job. Nice mod.

I preferred to leave my indicators on, the more the merrier as far as i'm concerned. 8)

Re: LED rear lights vs standard (OEM) ones - rivett - 05-05-13

Good mod mate, Is everything in with the price, or do you have to purr-chase any other bits, relay's and the like ? .
Any thing is good to make people aware that you are there .

Re: LED rear lights vs standard (OEM) ones - Enceladus - 05-05-13

no relays included but you can pick one up for £10 if needed.
i didn't need one as i left the original indicators on.
rear and brake lights don't need the relay.
hope this helps

I'd have thought keeping the originals would make an MOT easier :lol

I'd like to see a YouTube of this option if you don't mind spending the time.

Anyone tried replacing the standard bulbs with led ones ?
