Default Alloy Art, Worth the dough?

I just ordered a set of alloy art rear turns, strut mounts for my 06 fxst. They are the smoked lenses with the red leds. Does any one have these? How do you like them? Did you cut and splice into your stock turn signal wires?

I have the smoked lens amber ones, with the housings powdercoated black wrinkle to match my FXSTB struts. They are very stealthy, but very bright when illuminated. I would definitely say they're worth it. I cut/spliced, but used gold plated inline connectors with heat-shrink tubing over them, so they can be removed w/o cutting again.

Never heard of them before, but they do look good, a nice way to eliminate the blobs hanging off your fender struts. I don't think the $ is too bad, considering they are LED.

I had them on my bike. Just took them off because I'm going with some black now and I mounted some black LED lights. . They worked ok and looked good on the back. . I spliced mine to the directional wiring and shrunk wrapped the wires so it was pluggable.. I'll probably be selling mine.
