LED Signal question
I just purchased the truck light led headlight and passing lamps, and kinda want to swap out my turn signals and brake light as well. There seems to be so many options out there I'm getting confused. Right now I'm looking at these from HD but dang they are expensive! Are they worth it? Or are there better options out there? My existing lights are smoked out and I really like that look.

This morning I had a SG go past me and when he hit the brakes it was like Christmas...his would flash twice and then stay lit-up on the brakes...then stay lit in running mode once he was off the brakes. Anyway...thanks in advance for your help...this site just keeps giving all kinds of ways to spend my money...lol.

The kuryakyn panacea looks awesome...I'll give them a try. I'll get the fronts and swap out the signals when I do the headlights next week. The rear will have to wait a couple weeks. But when I do the rear, do I have to order anything to get the pulsing...or is it already in the tail light. Also... I do have the security system so looks like I need the Kuryakyn 5498 Alarm Compatible Load Equalizer as well. Any experience with these? Does the front need one as well?

When I did my Truck Lite, I also did LED turns and brake lights. For the turns, I went with Custom Dynamics. They are much brighter than stock turns. For the brake light, I went with the Bright *** Light 1. Bright is an understatement, and you can select different flash patterns and brightness levels.

This is the exact set up I did last year on my 2012 UC. I love the result. I did the install myself. Very easy if you follow the directions but it does take a considerable amount of time to do it right. Yes they are expensive but what from HD isn't? I went to my dealership's LED light demo where they offered 10% off all lights purchased at the demo. Saved a little. I rarely ride at night so the LED headlight does not interest me for the money they want for it.
Good luck. Be patient when doing your install.
