If you want the bag lights to strobe, I'd recommend going with the Custom Dynamics Low Profile Bagz, as they are compatible with our Magic Strobes units.

Our lights come with a lifetime warranty and run $149.95 for the pair.

I know from experience that CD customer service is top shelf. I had an issue with an install and in one phone call it was resolved. They stayed on the phone and walked me through it until I was satisfied.

I too use Custom Dynamics. I have had great exceptional customer service from them. I myself would never go anywhere else. I have seen videos on YouTube in passing from certain YouTubers about that "other" company. I do not even look at the videos. As I am a Custom Dynamics customer first and always. I do not get paid for my review or am I affiliated with them in any way. They have awesome and well built products IMO. Just bought recently new plasma rods for the back . With antenna plug lights.

I use products from both companies on my 14 FLHTK.
My personal choice is the Ciro Bag Blades for this application. The Bag Blades can be purchased with red brake/run and amber or red sequential flashing turn/hazard. Don't know for sure, but I think the Ciro's may be brighter as well?

If you pick red turns then the CD are cheaper but I think the C3D are sleeker and sit nicer on the bike

I've been looking at the CD as well, do they offer a Forum or any other discounts?

I know I'm reviving an old thread but what are the long term reviews of these lights? Which ones will allow me to remove the bags without removing the seat to get to the connector? And do they require a load equalizer if I remove the tourpack on a 22 Ultra Limited?
