Well, I just decided to go w/ the tailbones unit. Got it all hooked up and works great except for the license plate light won't go on now. What stock wire do I have to tap into for this to work?

I believe it's the orange wire. Just have to tap it on both ends of the plug so they are connected. Why didn't the tailbones have that 6th wire on the plug? You got me. Just connect the one wire that isn't connected and voila.

Default JOker Machine Astro turn signlas

Hi there,

I seem to be having a similar problem with the Joker Machine Astro rear turn signlas for my '98 Sportster XL 1200C. I was also advised by them that I would only need the badlands intensifier but for some reason all wiring configurations I have tried can't get the blink function to work. Also I am trying to eliminate the front turn signals. All Works fine when I put the stock ones back.

Any suggestions?
