Plasma Rods
I got the Plasma Rods from Custom Dynamics and I have a few questions about their mounting.I will be using them as run-brake only,any problem with the BAL tail light that I have on the bike?What are the 4 little gray-red things that came with the rods for?I think they call them posi-taps.I would need a diagram in order to have them connected properly,if possible.I also got the 3/4 round moulding from Lowe's so I should be good to go if I can get an answer to my doubts.Thanks

the posi taps are whats used to splice into your factory wiring. i had mine wired at a show so not 100% sure on what to cut/splice. they are bright expecially when pair up with their l.e.d. tail light upgrade.

Put them on my '10 RK with the stop, run tailight . Didn't use the taps I used a test light to find out what wires to spice into and did it that way. Pretty simple and a great product. Also , on my set, I had to apply the tape on the opposite side of the rod so the wires came out the top on both of them.Don't know if its been changed now or not as I bought the first sets that they had.

Maybe I'm stupid,but I cannot figure out where the rods are positioned.I have the saddlebag filler strips on my bike and everything has a curve back there and the rods don't adhere perfectly.I've also bought the 3/4" round molding from Lowes as suggested but now I have 2 problems instead of one-the rods and the moldings-.If any of you guys has a detailed picture or instructions to post it will be greatly appreciated.

did you need a equalizer in series with the plasma rods once installed ? did it mess up the alarm function or the turn signals ? i want to connect a set when the brakes are applied..

I used the Kuryakyn run/turn/brake module with no problems with the alarm functions.
