Default Real Cat Eye Tail Light On My Road Glide

I've never been a fan of reflectors so I decided to replace the one that came on my 2017 Road Glide Special with something different. I ran the Cat Eye pictured in the attached photo on the Triumph chopper that I rode to college. My wife found a duplicate on Ebay and gave it to me for a present. I fabricated a mount using the existing rear reflector bracket and wired the Cat Eye into the Road Glide harness. I think it looks kind of cool hiding under the Chopped Tour Pak. I wonder if anyone else on this Forum remembers these lights from back in the day?

I removed the reflector from mine when I changed out the chrome taillight bar for the black one. Looks much better now.
