|
| can anyone give me part numbers ect. for a cool way to get new tail lights and blinkers ect. Ive cut the stock plastic under the plate, but have seen a few pics that have the tail light under the fender. Ive looked at online dealers just dont want to buy something that wont fit ect. Also has anyone tried to pull the front reflectors off the shocks? ive seen BP that dont have them but all the new Street motos due, i pulled on them a little just dont know if they r glued or if there will be a hole or something if i rip them off. Thanks guys

the reflectors are glued on.
I used the stock tail lamp on mine, and BMW E46 side repeaters for turn signals. I made a little bracket for them, and they sit at a 45 deg angle to the rear, so they can be seen from the side also.

the lenses are available at the BMW car dealer, I want to say they were $12-15 each. I did cut the round loop bar below the lense, and re-welded it so that it is vertical, and welded on some tabs to hold the license plate. I did this to shorten the rear, and so my dual exhaust looks cleaner.
the lenses just clip into a cut out in the fender, so you just have to make a peice of flat sheet with the cut out to clip them into. they are available in amber and clear lenses.

LED flexible array from customdynamix ... custom/specify length center and indicator sections. special glue. unfortunately, pictures don't show what the plastic tube actually looks like.

www.customdynamics.com
same place the guy got the 1.85" LED array. sportbikes and cruisers, replacement lights and all the 'angel eye' / illuminated 'cruzer chav' type stuff  but also custom stuff including a lot of interesting black box elec stuff. you need to browse around there a bit to sort it out.
