Default LED Turn signals

I have a 2012 Road Glide Ultra I would like to switch over to custom dynamics led turn signals. The question i have is if I go to a brake turn run signal on the rear would I order 1157 clusters or 1156. I thhink the stock rear turn signal is a 1156.

You want the dual filament bulb used for turn/stop.
You do realize you'll have to wire for that option right and it isn't plug and play?

Dual filaments, I believe - 1157s.

Default Plug & play

I don't think you need to rewire anything, Biketronics makes a plug & play to turn your rear signals to Brake Turn Run They call it the tail stopper I'm just wondering if I can use 1156 clusters or 1157.

If you have the center tail light and separate blinkers you need 1156 lamps and custom dynamics sells a module called the triple play. That will handle run brake turn you will also need to purchase the proper load balancer for the leds. Both should be plug and play.

On my 12 street glide I installed the Radiantz LED's.
Simple plug and play, and no extra compensator electronics needed.

The Street Glide uses just the two turn signal bulbs to serve as turn, stop and running lights. Wanted to get something brighter on there.

The Ultra uses a 1156 single filament bulb. Unless you rewire a new socket you will still use a single filament bulb even when using a r/t/b module.
