for 20 bucks more you can do these! http://www.alloyart.com/products/dsl.html paint black or wrinkle to match whatever struts you have.

Depending on the look you want you may want to stay away from the Kuryakyn bar. I bought on for my bike and the turn signals poke out beyond the flat part on the rear of the tail light. It looks funny to me so I plan on getting the Street Glide bar sometime in the future.

I had these, but for me I didn't like the overlap on the strut covers. If you don't mind that they are bright!!

Here's a picture of the right side mounting point. if you don't grind it down on the inner portion of the mounting point you will have about a 1/8" gap on the outside. When you get your light bar and you put it up against your fender it will make perfect sense. Then for the angle I did guess and check. I just eye balled it grinded it down and put it up on the fender to check it. I grinded little at a time and kept checking till I was happy. Make sure when you check the light bar level with the ground also. Do a little at a time because if you take to much off you'll have a gap on the inside of the mounting point. I coated the bare metal with clear nail polish to help with rust. Make sure you use masking tape for mocking it up and drilling so you don't mess up your paint. I know it sound like a lot but just making sure you all know precautions to watch out for. It was very easy and only took me 30 min to mask, ground and mount then another 30min for wiring.

Yes pucker factor was in affect. I measured like 20 times to make sure I drill once and not have to re-paint. I had the light bar for 6-8 months, just had to let the ***** drop to drill into the paint set.

you know the cleanest way to do this is to get a kuryakin panacea taillight. It has the blinkers built in. You are legal and you can toss the signals. If you are using the run turn module on your signals, you unfortunately will loose the extra light to alert drivers you are on the brakes. I have my signals simply due to the brake stop module on my bike.
