Default new 2012 SG w/ questions

picked up my new SG today and have some basic questions about aftermarket items.

do they make a brighasslight that works in the stock brakelight location?
If no, what are my options? Any light kits available for the rear of the bags to heighten awareness of me braking?

What is best to use for moving my floorboards out and forward? Harley products or aftermarket?

Loved the ride home and already in touch with DR V-Twin and Fuel Moto for pipes and intake options.

Thanks in advance!!!

LED headlight is a option check out the HD catalog find what you like then do a search on the forum for some reviews. As far as break lights I have seen a light module that flashes your rear light while breaking. Not sure who makes it though.

There are several aftermarket kits which move your floorboards out. I am very happy with my Soos SK6 Floorboard Extension Kit (1" out), $39.90.

My answer for moving the floorboards forward 1" is the HD 54145-10 Extended Reach Rider Footboard Pans, $79.95.

You can change out the bulbs on your rear brake lights with an LED Cluster. Custom Dynamics sells them. It's a big improvement over stock. You can also check out Plasma Rods, there is a thread floating around here somewhere about it.
