Default Winter mods, electical question?

I am taking off my brake light and using a harley run/brake/turn kit to move my brake lights out to the turn signals. I installed the kit today and everything is working fine. My question is, once I remove my tail light and re-route some wires to my Kury side mount license plate bracket (without tail light) will I have an electical issue since my load will now be less with out the tail light bulb being installed. I know a few guys out there have done this mod so any advice would be great. The fender is off and being taken to work tomorrow to fill in the existing tail light and license plate bracket holes. Can't wait for fresh vivid black paint with Von Dutch style pinstripes. Oh yeah, it's on a 08 superglide custom.
