Default L.E.D. accent lights (huff_custom)

some people like em some dont, I think there pretty cool looking at night ridin around or turnin them on at shows, at night or dem lit areas it really shows off the chrome it looks like the bikes glowing. I try and keep it clean and take it to shows not to win (winnin cool and all) but to show off what ive done and how different MY sportster looks.....Just to let those who wonder know. I dont trailor it, i ride it, i get it filthy at times caught in the rain, dust, backroads, but i try and clean it. "chrome is nice but it wont get you home "as they say and thats fine cause if all the chrome fell off......Id still be ridin the **** out of it.

I like the way LED accents look. For some reason, I'm too uptight to do it on a car, but on a bike, hell yeah.

Can you describe what you actually have going on there to get that effect? A bunch of pods? What do you have to do to get power to those things?

i used a L.E.D. kit that came with a set of 20 individual lights and put 4 in the front fender (to accent the wheel) i put 8 under the tank, 2 behind the horn, 2 more on the frame and then i put 4 under the rear fender (light up the rear wheel and white wall.) hid all my wiring and hooked it up to the battery and to a switch it came with hidden under the seat. Usually i dont go for all the neon lighting l.e.d. on cars its kinda "RICEY" but its a good way to show off your chrome at night and dont look to "fast and the furious"
