If u are wanting all three functions it is not true plug and play on a streetglide. U will have to tap into your rear tri bar light. I just called and asked them. Run and brake only are true plug and play.

I actually only wanted run/brake but they said it would be all 3 on the phone. Either way is fine with me.

Hmmm, I really want all three but don't wanna tap in at tri bar, too much moisture and stuff under there for me to be splicing wires.

Well didnt get them installed since I forgot to stop on get some 3m tape for the corner round but I hooked them up to see how they worked.

With just the plug and play adapters they are only run or brake depending on which you hook it to. I have no idea why they told me it would be all 3.

So I guess I needed the PDC's to make them run/brake which is what I thought but they said no.

They are nice and bright and I can see they are going to look good on it.

As far as wether they are plug and play with the adapters. They are plug and play to the bike with the adapters. Meaning no splicing on the factory harness. You do still have to use the posilocks to hook the plasma rods to the plug and play adapter.

Called them back today and they admitted they made the mistake. I did need the 2 PDC's to make them run and brake. They are sending them out no charge since it was there mistake.

We all make mistakes but it's good to see good customer service.

Bad cell phone pic but work good as brake only atm
