The Rocker lights are also 6V and there are no aftermarket replacements available...A run/brake/turn signal module with a load equalizer will allow you to use 12V LED lights, and have them operate as run/brake/turn. Badlands has one specifically for the Rocker that's plug and play!

Works great!

I just remembered my Thunderbike fender running/turn lights are 2 wire (center brake light is 3 wire)...so the Badlands unit works fine with those as well, and they also operate as run/brake/turn.
