  • V&H Big Radius 2-into-2
  • Screaming Eagle Heavy Breather
  • Screaming Eagle Super Tuner
  • HD LED Headlight
  • Custom Dynamics Dynamic LED lights (turn, brake, added 3rd brake)
  • Enough Willie G bling to make any noob blush!

Just quick question for you, what was the cost for the LED Turn, Break and 3rd break light?

Looks great. Basically exactly what I want too ! !

As far as the reflectors-- I removed mine (on road glide) with a hair dryer BUT..

The hairdryer and string and stuff is overrated. Get down there with the hairdryer to warm it up a bit, and then just pull it off... Its just sticky goo holding them on.

Any goo left over (and there will be) will come right off with a spray of WD40 on a rag. Then clean it up and go !

WD40 takes off a lot of stuff and is not harsh like "Goof Off" which will etch paint.
Uh, trust me on that one.

Use WD40 first. Love that stuff.

MORE PICS ! ! ! !

I have the module that runs all three.
I can get the model # off of it if anyone is interested in it.
I bought it and never used it because I have ZERO room under the seat for it.
PM me.

The LED's make a huge difference. The fronts are bright white as running lights and the center flashes amber for the turn signal. The rear are much brighter as well. I removed the center reflector on the rear fender and replaced with the LED bar. It flashes for 5 seconds when you hit the brake.

As for removing the reflectors....REALLY easy and no chance of damaging the paint. Get a piece of strong twine. With a sawing motion run it behind the reflector. You will be cutting through the foam tape that holds the refector on. Then take a litle WD-40 or rubbing alcohol to remove any residue. Dont use "goof off" or other solvent. It is good stuff but will soften / damage the paint.

All was about $180. Easy install. The turn signals take 2 minutes...I took 15 becase I wipe, polish, and center everything obsessively! hahaha

The 3rd break light can be done in 30 min. (an hour for me). Ill do a full write up with part #'s and pics of which wires to tap if anyone is interested.
