Hey 2010 Iron, where did you get that LED light and how did you mount it? I would love to take off my lights and replace it with just the LED bar under the fender.

i saw where someone had posted the part number (73420-11) in another thread asking if anyone had put one on. went to ebay and typed in the part number. came up with wolverine harley davidson $79.00 + $7.00 shipping. three days later it was here. everything you need comes with it. it is stuck on with 3 pieces of 3M tape already on the light. wire harness that plugs right into the original. it lights as a tail light and brake light. and it doesnt change the outer lights at all. they still operate like they did.

Does it flash on one side of the other like a turn signal? I think that's the only concern...because if I did that, I would take the originals off. And to stay legal, I would need turn signals.

I wonder if the 1200Cs taillight is interchangable with other Sportster models like the superlow?

I was the one who asked if anyone installed it. The light looks great. You just convinced me to buy one.

Thanks!!!
