What smoke lens do you have? Brake or turn? The module is plugged under the seat, the kit comes with 2 red lenses for both turn signal. It is really easy, in and out connections, no drilling or mounting, it is hidden under the TC module, seat has to come off though. 15mins? fairly easy.

It is simply "plug & play". I have the Kuryakyn version.
I am running smoked lenses front and back.

Well, unless you want the extra brake lights to be amber, otherwise you change them to red.

The Harley version only makes the turn signals light up when you hit the brakes or of course turn signals.

I installed the Harley version on my bikeabout a week ago.

Someone else said they used the sameversion & the turn signalsare on all of the time. My part # was 68286-04
