Default Running Lights
I have a 2007 883 XL (standard model), that I bought used. I just replaced the non-OEM rear turn signals with Baby Bullets. The baby bullets have three wires, one is for running lights. My question is, can I tie those wires together and tap into the running light wire in the tail light assembly and use them as running lights also? Thanks for the help.

You should be able to if that wire is for running lights. Do you have a link to those lights as I'd like to look into them for my Sportster.
