I have them. No equalizer needed.

Just talked to Custom Dynamics. They are coming out with dual color (red/amber) ultra bright plasma rods soon, that they expect to work on Road Glides and Street Glides without the center light.



They will be run/brake in red and turn in amber.

No ETA on when they will be available, but I'm on their call list..... so when I hear something, I'll post it.

I got them on my 08 SG and they work great Break,run and blinker I want EVERYone to see what I'm doing from behind...the positaps work fine, find your wires with a test light to pierce the wires and you are good to go. Also call Cust. dyn. They are GREAT support and will walk you through it on the phone while you are talking to them..also have wizard lights second generation and love them, makes a nice light show while the bike is watching me drink beer, attracts LOTs of pretty girls too...wifey is not happy about that. I told her I thought it was ME...

I ordered the plasma rods last night and picked up the quarter round stuff yesterday while I was at Lowes. Hope to get them installed next week. Thanks for all the ideas and help on doing this.
