Installed Electra Glo Saddlebag lights on 2015 Ultra...I like them.
2015 Ultra Classic. I use the HD Visa card for about everything. I get reward points on the card that can be redeemed at the dealer. Had a few hundred "dollars" of reward points so I meandered in and bought the Electra Glo Saddlebag Brake/Turn/Running lights #67800241. Took about 45 minutes to install. (I could do it in about 10 minutes now that I know what I'm doing.) They work fine and are...are...oh, what's the word I'm looking for...BRIGHT! Yeah. That's the word. Bright!
I had considered them before but since I had never seen them on a bike I was kinda on the fence about buying them. A couple weeks ago I happened to get behind a Harley that had them and I was convinced. It was daytime and they made the bike more noticeable. After installation I turned off the lights in my shop, turned on the ignition and hit the 4-way flashers to see what it looked like. With the LED tour-pak lights, the brake light and the new saddlebag lights, about the only way to make yourself more visible would be to install law enforcement style emergency strobes.

Have those on our Limiteds and added some more to increase visibility since stock rear end didn't stand out but not anymore instead it's very bright and all DOT compliance lights.
Added them to my SGS and the additional light they put out is definitely worth it. 90% of the time I ride I'm two up with the tour pak on and this adds more light to the back. I've had a lot of folks come up to me stating they're really bright at night.

Do not understand why you have not replaced the stock tail light with LED one.

I just replaced the stock lght bulb with compatible LED one because it was cheaper. May be one of these days I might put on the real deal. My problem is I just can't buy one have to buy 2 of everything or I might be sleeping in the garage with the dogs.

I know exactly what you mean, what kind of license plate bracket is that?
Thanx,

Deng, that rear end looks like a big "bus" from behind--good job.
Where did you get the LEDs to fill the void between the fender and saddle bags?
For the brake light I replaced the incandescent bulb with a red Pilot Automotive brand LED 3157. It's darn near as bright as the $180.00 HD LED tail light...but costs just $14.95 at Walmart for a pair of 'em. I had the HD LED tail light on my old bike, so I'm familiar with how bright it was.
