Default LED TAIL light
i found one of those led tail lights at a swap meet i thinks its a panacea light..I have the HD run brake setup ..The problem is that the taillight only has 2 wires white/black ..my tail light on my 06 roadking has 3 wires..Is there some type of adapter? or do i need to the panacea controller?

I'm pretty sure the Panacea comes with its own controller that ties into both brake and signal circuits. I would think that the light would not function as expected without this.

If its a Panacea, you'll need the controller. They are available separately.
