I've got these lights that cap off the end of your fender struts, made by Alloy Art. I think they look awesome, plus they are pretty bright (I've read somewhere here that ppl were saying they were not very bright, but I disagree). They are a little pricey, though, and you would also have to buy an LED Turn Signal Intensifier Converter kit to work as run-brake-turn lights (I got the Badlands brand).
There might be a problem depending on how far back towards the end of your bike the bags go; you wouldn't want the bags to cover up the lights. The lights do add approximately an inch and a half of length to the struts.

I've had my eye on those for a while. They look great. How hard was the install?
When we put the bags on my wife's Slim, I installed the Harley relocation kit. And, yeah... It did look like dog feces. So, we went another route.
We installed glass lensed brake/turn signals with short chrome stalks, and a '32 Ford tail light. I had to fab up a bracket for the turn signal stalks but it bolts to the fender liner that is supplied with the relocation kit where the license plate light used to be. I also fabbed up a bracket for the '32 Ford tail light using, of all things, a small block Chevy fuel pump backing plate and used a stock '32 Ford tail light wiring cover to keep things clean and hide the wires.
Also, Harley was kind enough to prewire the Slims with a center fender brake/running light circuit. There just wasn't a wire running out the other side of the tail light connector. So, I added one using the left over wire connectors that I had from the relocation kit and, Bob's your uncle, center brake and run light. The brake lights still function like stock, but she now has the added visibility of a center brake/running light. Plus, the running light acts as a license plate light. 'Turned out decent.
Would you be interested in making another one? I'm willing to pay. I love your setup, it's more along the lines that I want for my Slim.
