Default Run/Tail/Turn and LED Install

Made the change today. i used the Badlands Illuminator module for Sporty's. It took about 3 hours but I am not very mechanically inclined. Biggest problem was finding a place to put the box. For an 08 Sporty don't try to put the module in the lower front of the battery box cover it won't fit. I ended up burying it in the gap under the seat. It really is easy, plug and play, just follow the directions minus the location of the module. I also added LEDs in the rear turn signals and front turn signals. The Badlands module has the load equlizer built right in. Makes a big difference. Next step to put in an LED taillight.

Yes LED's are awesome! I have the HD LED taillight and LED's in my rear signals and love them.
