A simple solution might be a 6 in led light bar under the license plate. I removed the red reflector and installed the light in its place. Purchased from Custom Dynamics for about $40. Clean install, no mods needed, lots of light.

My painter ordered them. He is filling in the holes where the grommet on one side and and antenna on the other go. He is not actually using those holes for the led lights in the fillers but frenching the lights in below those holes.
Here's a link to some lighting. Don't know if any af these will work for your app or not.

Now you have more than enough light without having to drill/cut the fender.

like bfrank says, the stock piece from the factory is just a running light, the link he supplied is to the p&a catalog for the brake/run adapter. bought from zanotti's it's $102 and some change. i know, i just ordered one......

Just to clarify that link is to a complete light replacement. The install is pretty easy would have been easier with a lift but I did it ok on the jiffy stand in my garage.

I had a bright *** light on my RG but my 2010 Street Glide does not give me that option. Plasma lights look good. The harley "upgrade" is OK but I am so pissed they did not include it for safety on a $20K bike i want to find another option. Preferably something as bright as bright *** and pulsating. Anyone come up with other brake lighting upgrades for the 2010 FLHX or FLTRX?

They (oem bulbs) really are super bright...I was concerned at first myself but once I saw them in action I was put at ease...J&P cycles has the cluster LED replacement bulbs for these that are about 7-8 bucks a pc...Those should be even brighter.
