Yessir. Acutually, i just replaced the rear brake switch last week. I have the front switch ready to go so one of these days. Maybe you should ride over here and step on it while take a pic. LOL. thanks for your help.

Was wondering if you mounted it upside down , since the bar and shield is upside down plus the white light should illuminate your license plate ?

The guy I bought it from has a softail standard and it goes on that bike upside down from how it mounts on a softail. I don't know if it will fit my bike upside down, but if it did it sure would look funny.
