Default 2011 Fat Bob Rear Tail Light?
Does someone make a rear tail light LED that fits into the rear fender? Looking for something more streamline fitting? Thanks.

The Harley Tri-Bar LED will fit.

I would recommend the real HD product and not a cheep E-bay one as some have had issues with the plastic tabs breaking off.

I have had one on my scoot for a while now with no issues

It does break off. The previous of the tri bar light I bought put some epoxy around the mount tabs and it's held up strong for him and myself

Would not opt for the Tri-Bar, has only been a PITA for me. Hardly any good looking alternatives unfortunely.

Those are nice looking, if they would make them to work with normal turn signals, I would buy today. Maybe someone will post how to make them work with normal turn signals? Just not a fan of those little tiny turn signals next to the license plate, don't think they would get much attention from anybody behind ya.

FWIW Alan,

I went back to the stock tail light. I'll trim up the license plate plastic part so there isn't excess and eventually put one of those bright *** lights on. It's not the prettiest setup but it'll be extremely functional and I won't have to worry about it.

I've had the TriBar on mine for years. No problems.
