@Baka..... And yet it makes no difference in your comprehension or interests or ability... You find energy to insult, acuz you feel insulated.. And entitled.. classless, sheeple .. Pics of this made zero difference.

In spite of your remark to me, (which didn't want me to help you). why not get clear plexiglass/Lucite type of material, tint it black so you can still see thru it and mount your Leds/neon right behind them, perhaps cutting out the section of the bag to run wires and run them off the taillights. when off it will blend in with the bad, and when on will have the colored glow from behind. You could also put initials in the plexiglass so when lights are on the letters will stay black and be accented

@ harleycharlie1992.. Your visual sounds good but
I don't want surgery or irreversible alterations to the bags.
I don't want wires anywhere. I want a battery solution.. Like 2032, maybe parallel for longer life..
As far as any remarks, I never start up.. I'm laid back and self effacing.
Not a soft target..
I'm tolerant beyond expectations till it's personal...
Then I'm all in, beyond expectations

The op may want to start a new thread looking for a smart English major to help with sentence structure and how to explain himself in print.

The next thread, he might look for a copy of How to Win Friends and Influence People.

3rd thread would be how to take a picture and post to the interweb.

Then come back to this one and ask for some assistance.

What a putz!!!

Amkaos,

Those bags go nice with the bike, since you need to paint the bags anyway to match the bike, I'd fill the indentions and paint the bags to match the bike. If that's not your style but you have some money, why non pay a machinist to custom machine something out of stainless, polish it and inlay the lights of your choice wired inward to the inside of the bags.
