I just put the bag extensions on my 10 sg and since i have the 2 into 1 exhaust it looks dumb with the left side blank. so i found on ebay a tail light from a 32 ford (reproduction tail light that is chrome and says stop)

Im wondering how to make this a run/brake light?

 

If it's a dual element socket it will accept a 1157 type bulb and it will work as a tail light and brake light.

 

so where should i tap into the wiring at? i am guessing one wire would wun to the run-wire & one to the brake- wire?

 

I think I would try and tap into the wire under the seat somewhere.

 

i tapped mine in at the brake light housing with the brake and running lights. then ran the wires down along the inside of the fender. not the same install, but the concept is the same.

 

alright thnx man i think im gonna try the same but run the wires down the inside of the saddlebags

 

just wanted to ask again

can i tap into the rear ascia light?
and i so does anyone know what wire is a run wire and wich is a brake?

 

not sure it is the same on yours but on mine there was a four prong plug in the tail light. in the first slot was a blue wire=running light. 2nd=empty. 3rd=red wire brake light. 4th=black wire ground. if the light you bought has 3 wires connect them accordingly. if only 2, i think only the red and black.

you can always splice the wires, and try them on different connections. if everything goes dead then you blew a fuse. its a 15 under your left side cover.

I am not an electrician, so this is the best i could do to describe how i did mine. hope it works out for ya.

 

thanks for all the help im very pleased with how it turned out
