You will have to tuck the wires neatly (the one that runs down the center) for the tail light. Because right now the excess is stuffed into the tail light itself. So if you fill everything in there won't be anywhere to stuff the excess. I would cap off the harness plug (im going to use a rubber cap that fits on there tight) so it won't short anything out from moisture.

that looks good. i personally dont have any objection to the stock tail light. A tail light is a tail light to me. I really like how clean the back of the bike is with just the turn signals being used as turn / brake lights.

Fender is is the bobbed fender kit for 06 and later dynas. I drilled the fender to mount the plate and wired in the led in the frame into the socket for the license plate on the run, turn, brake module.

If you remove the light housing, you'll need to install some sort of plate bracket. You can disconnect the light housing from the module under the seat, disconnect and pull the wires out of the connector at the light side and pull them through the fends bundle tube (not easy). You can use these wires to run a always on light for the plate bracket or to run a run/brake light on the plate mount if that's the way you go. PM if you need help.
Oh and yes you can run the turn sig lights as brake/turn/run lights with the center light unplugged (no mod needed).

Sounds like you have a good setup! Did you add a light so the plate could be lite up at night, required almost everywhere if not everywhere. If not, I believe the orange w/ white stripe wire from the old housing is your always on light. You could pick up a frame with a build in light and just wire it up.
