Chipstah \\\\\\;put a tombstone on his bike

Sure did! Wish I could help with sourcing for correct fit, but got mine off ebay from a private party before I ever had the bike - cheap at $10 and fellow claimed it was harley NOS with the blue dot, but when I got it the lenses were plastic, so not so sure. J&P has a lot to choose from and most ought to work. Fit stock area just fine, but wiring was a bit of a trial and error hassle (certainly not my area of expertise!). Plate holder was integrated on the top of the tail light housing, so I wasn't able to use a laydown license plate unless I cut off the bracket (which I didn't want to do).

RE: tail lights

If you don't like the holes in the fender, Kuryakyn makes a couple of covers that will cover all four holes.&nbsp\\; They have the skull like on mine (or you can get a Maltese Cross that fits where the skull is) and they have a tribal cover too. Not to mention that other folks here have come up with their own ideas on how to either fill or cover the holes.

RE: tail lights

I need to pull if off of the bike and make a template up so i have the right size and hole placement on there then i can find something for it.
&nbsp\\;
Also on the T-signals that I'm seeing are those just the stockers with the hoods on them?
Or something completely different?
&nbsp\\;
I had seen a pos ton how folks were takign the rears and then just shortning the bracket on them. thought htey looked good close to the rear of the scoot.
&nbsp\\;
Also trying to do some thing with the front ones hanging off the handel bars.

My tombstone had two bolts for the fender as opposed to the stock one bolt, so required drilling a second hole (no big deal to me).

Yes, the rear signals on my bike have the HD visored smoked lenses front and back. And the tombstone has a $2.99 visor made for it I found from J&P just had to have it!
