Default CD Run/Brake LED Light Bar for Fatboy

Anyone running this addon yet? Kind of strange they offer it in an adhesive application. Is it a plastic/vinyl housing?

Looks like you pull the existing reflector off, drill for the light and use double stick tape to attach. Must not weigh much. If it's good double stick, it should work fine I would think. I'd love to have a brake light there and the price is right too.

Yeah, I looked at the instructions. Flimsy looking run/brake light and wiring connections. Wish the unit was better built/quality. One thing for sure, if I go that route definitely pull the fender and solder in some electrical male/female disconnects.

Got this light for my Sport Glide but where the wire needs to come out is right where the bolt is to hold the rear fender on. So, gotta see if I can adjust that.
