First, I am deployed and have time to kill. (lots of time to kill) I have been looking at lights for my bike. I would like to do accent lighting on my bike but don't know much about it. I have also been looking at LED tail lights. I need to know what to stay away from and what would be the best choices for either accent lighting or LEDs.

What brands are recommended.
Prefer plug and play

Thanks in advance......

Well, the world is your oyster here. There are a huge selection of led taillights out there. Check amazon, ebay for good deals. Almost all will be plug and play. Same goes for accent lighting. I have some LED taillights on mine, I think the brand was AGT? They look great. Cost about $8.

The Radiantz LED clusters work great as run/turn/stop lights. Just be sure to get the correct 1156 or 1157 version for your application. 1156 is single intensity (run and turn only.) 1157 is dual intensity for run/stop/turn.

custom dynamics is awesome.... they are really good about answering all your questions. email them, and you'll have an answer. check out my Avatar. I used their "TruFlex" light strip and their LED cluster lights for my bullet brake lights. I live it so far, its so bright that its blinding lol. let me know if you want some more pics.

Hey guys, thanks for getting back to me on this. I spent most of the night when I had free time looking stuff up. I think I talked myself out of the accent lights and probably just got with LED tail light for now. I am leaning toward function it seems. Might end up doing the turn signals too. Just have to decide and keep looking..........g2shuck, that is a cool idea. I liked the pic on the site. Pretty neat what folks can come up with.
