Default Help me add a second set of incandescent tail lights

Sorry I started this thread and then figured it out already. Thought someone might know but it was pretty easy.

‘’I took stock front 93 softail turn signals and mounted them on the rear of my 98 road king between the bags and fenders and ran them as running lights.




mods, you can close thread

Without a wire diagram, you'll need to chase which wire goes to which contact in the new lights; don't expect wire colors to match.
I used a similar approach to add the chrome, (dual element, 1157) front turn signal housings to my brake/tail light circuits in place of my factory rear turn signals.
This gave me the additional circuit for brake lights as well as retaining the turn signals.

To do this, you 'll need to also replace the original, orange TS lenses with red.
