Lighting Upgrade Street Glide
The Tri Bar was easy. Two connections and two torx screws just like the others said. Problem was the light I purchased was defective, so I had to send it back. Waiting on the new one.
The Air Wing Rack light was fairly simple also. You just need a small wire crimping tool to install the connector once you run the wire in the rack. Start to finish it was a 1 beer job ( 30 minutes ).

Change out all of the signal lights to leds. Badlands makes a great "plug and play" led kit with the load equalizer. Also, change out the tri-bar light at the bottom of the fender for the run/brake tri-bar light from HD http://www.harley-davidson.com/gma/g...bmLocale=en_US

I put in the HD run/turn/brake kit in. Having the turn signals light up with the brake light makes a big difference. Also, I put in an LED bulb from superbrightled that brightened up the tail light. The bulb I got is the 25 led version with a few leds on the back of the bulb to light up the reflector inside the brake light case.
I have nothing against brightasslights. I really want one of their BAL kits, but they are crazy overpriced. That's JMHO. No offense to BAL. If the price comes down, then maybe I'll buy one. There are better upgrades to spend that kind of money on.

We were just discussing brightening up the rear of the 2010 Street. The Tribar Kit will do it. My wife just wanted a little more light. Nobody worried here. She picks it up next week.

Which kit did you use on your SG?

Is that the kit you selected? I was thinking about using it and seeing if the cops ever objected

If I wanted more light on the rear, I would do the LED lower fender tail brake conversion, and maybe try to incorporate some LED bars in the fender facias next to the bags.
But for now I think they look fine.
