Default 09 FXDB rear end mod
i want to modify the rear end of my bike by removing tail light and license plate. instead, i want to install a side license plate mount and convert signal lights to run/brake/signal.

is that possible for 09 FXDB. i couldn't find any aux running light conversion kit for this model.

please, advise.

your signals are dual purpose. Running and turn so the module wont work. Leave them alone and just add a sidemount plate with a brake light on it. But wont you have a big hole in your fender from the stock brake light?

Alright then, you will need red 1156 bulbs, smoke lenses, and a run turn stop module. Oh and a sidemount bracket off ebay. Try road6 customs, its like $20.00! The module comes with red sig lenses. Just did not care for the look.

if your sigs are single filiment bulbs then the module for the 08's should work. Or just add a brake/running light to your sidemount plate

I ordered the Road6custom side mount plate, make sure you get the 1 inch diameter to fit on you axle. I also wanna to remove my Sparto but apparently with the '09 there is a hole in the fender that need to be covered up, not the 3 holes that can be plugged, I seen some Rocker guys use tank emblem to do this looks pretty good.
