+1 on Custom Dynamics. Just changed out front and rear turn signals and a big difference. Friend I ride with said super bright and noticed them right away. Will agree with post above as I used the Dynamic Ringz in the front and now the HL looks dull, so will change HL next, probably a TL phase7.

@ fred garvin. What load equalizer did you use to control the front and back?

@ CHILLS. Looks great! Are those the plasma rods? If so were they difficult to install?

nope just regular old LED strips.
i did use the BIKETRONICS load equalizer instead of the custom dynamics because there was a lot of really good reviews on the BK one verses the CD one. & it was very small, plug & play & no running a power wire to the battery.
one more thing i also got the brake light strobe module from CD.

I bought the complete conversion kit from CD that came with their Street Magic stabilizer. Seems fine so far and install was easy. Plugged right in to the harness and 2 wires to battery. Had the whole kit installed in 30 minutes.

Plus 1 again on Custom Dynamics. they have a kit and you choose what color you want your rear turn signals and lenses. I stayed with amber turn signals with clear lenses. I also got the tail light at the same time.
Equalizer came with the kit and easy to install.
I ordered the rear fender tip light from them that is dual density and it is a brake light also.
They have a magic strobe unit that has 10 settings, some for LED and some for incadesent lamps. One is a blaster strobe for 3 seconds then the brake lights go steady. Really wakes up the cages.
I put some 45 LED bulbs in my tour pack and connected to the brake function of the fender brake lights to the tour pack brake ligths and strobe all of them now.
Now it will make you see spots like a flash on a camera make when I put on the brakes.

I want to put in my two cents for the Harley LED headlight and runnings lights. Just returned from a 3000 mile trip from Colorado to Tennessee. While going across Missouri at 10:00 pm we came up behind and passed two other motorcyclist. Later at a gas station the two came in for gas. The guy said he thought I was a UFO coming up their ***. He had never sen such bright lights. From my seat the three completely light up the entire road. I'm very happy with the HD set

For you guys that use the strobe module, is it a plug and play thing or do you need to cut/splice any wires. Install easy or a pain in the ****? Thinking I might add this one. Used to have a panacea flasher on my old ultra and liked the "attention getter" flashing it provided.
