Hoglite install with pictures
Installed a Hoglite under my tourpak tonight. I really like the looks and I think it will make me much more visible when I hit the brakes. This lite is a brake light only and is not on otherwise. If you want one, you can get one here: http://www.hoglite.com/
One thing I also like is that the wire is in the bottom of my tourpak under the liner where you can't see it. I ran the wire out through the RH speaker and located the plug right next to the speaker wire plug so it is simple to unplug when I remove the tourpak. I bought a HD plug and wire ends so it plugs right into the existing plug on my bike. With the HD spoiler, you have a wire in the lid of the tourpak that you have to run down. This costs 1/3 as much too.
Here are some pics. If anyone has questions or wants to see something from a different angle, I can take more pics. Photography is not my strong point (greg!) LOL

RE: Hoglite install with pictures
Thanks for this post. I've been thinking of adding this to
list of mods but, never seen a post with pics to show how
it looked, other than the website. Looks like a great safety
feature considering all the "rear endings" I've been reading about lately. Would you have the part # of the HD plug & wire
ends to do the hookup??
Guess I'll be pullin' out the "plastic" again to get some
more "safety" stuff.
Thanks for the post.

RE: Hoglite install with pictures
I've been looking at this lite but I'd like to put something on the top of the tourpack. I have the luggage rack installed and I'm not really fond of the spoiler. Is the angle of the light adjustable at all or are the mounting brackets 'fixed'?
