Look cool. I saw the tail lights in the J & P catalog. Might look cool with the ones that fit on top of the bags too.

Thanks guy's, ya, saw them in JP also. Thats what gave me the idea. But I'm a cheap sob so I did the hard way. I bought the tail lights from www.koolrides.com for fifty bucks, the after market turn signals from ebay for ten $ and already had the led's. So, I mayby have 100 bucks total. Well, not counting my time to do it.

May have hurt yourself there. Lenses at J & P are $17.99

I thought about putting these Caddy caps on all of my rear lights.
