Look up "Indicator mod by Darrsi" on YouTube.

Also got the clear lens tail light with built in indicators on as well.

I've left the original indicators on as well, i wanna be seen as there's too many arseholes about and i'm not giving them any excuses not to see me!

A couple of quick questions if you have the time please ?


What are the spec of the LEDs ? (are they waterproof, SMD, light output ?, ebay link if you have one :-))
Is it attached with self adhesive tape or something stronger ?
I assume you just spliced them in to the existing wires with waterproof connectors ?


TIA Darrsi.

They're waterproof, very bright, and they have a strong adhesive tape on the back so just make sure the fairing surface is free fom dirt or grease.
I also made a point of keeping them as flat as possible on the fairing, rather than sticking them on any curves, as i didn't want them peeling off in hot weather. They're still on there now so that all seems to stick very well.

I unscrewed the indicators so i could feed the wire through the hole then just put them back in place, the wire just about fits snugly.
And i simply unclipped the original indicators bullet connector, fed the bare wire through the middle of it, bent a bit of wire back then pushed the bullet connector back into place.
There were no problems with timing either, they work perfectly in sync with the original lights.
