I think that's the one I have. Vibrations kill the license plate leds eventually (couple months after mounting) | ||

Must just be the connection then cause leds cant burn out iirc | ||
| Lovedabueller |
no they can. i had a different kind of led system and i had to replace some leds. the died. it will be posted for sale.....now . | ||

I just used led faux CF ones, In the picture i still have the"big trunk" on the x1 http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i20/preybird1/le d2.jpg (Message edited by preybird1 on March 20, 2009) | ||

 This is what i ended up with. If you notice i made the license plate hanger 1" longer to still be able to run the plate's light and 2 more holes for when i remove it and put in some led lights instead. | ||

I have a friend that has one of these integrated light setups on his M2. I've followed him more than once. It's really difficult to pick out a signal for a turn during the day. I don't recommend it. | ||

Here is what I did   | ||
| Crazyman54783 |
I just bought some LEDs and bought the intergrator box and did it myself with some aluminum sheeting. | ||

Neil, Wanna make a day project out of it one day??? I want to make a super f'ing bright integrated one that looks pretty much stock, with side firing turn signals and down firing white's for the the license plate. You pretty good with this stuff? LOL | ||
| Oldironsides |
Crzyman Is that the stock dash piece or custom. And what is in the bottom left corner of it. By the way the bike looks great. I kicked the idea of doin my own tail light. If possible maybe a pic of the dash. thanks. | ||

Limited, that looks like one of Clear Alternatives lights. I got one for the S-1 from Fleabay a couple of years ago, $89 and free shipping at the time. Still works great and I love the smoked lens.  | ||
| Blazin_buell |
BTW Crzy, very clean bike and killer taillight. | ||
| Brinnutz |
Blazin, What do you use to mount your license plate, the standard eliminator? And a close up of those turn signal mountings would be cool. | ||
| Limitedx1 |
thanks for the answer i was lookin for blazin! | ||
| Blazin_buell |
Bnutz, that plate locater is actually the duckbill portion of the original rear fender. When I trimmed it I used the flat section and drilled it to fit under the taillight. That light is an integrated unit with the turn signals ,therefore no sticky outy signals. | ||
| Crazyman54783 |
OLD IRON SIDES HERE IS THE PIC FOR THE DASH IT IS A CUSTOM PIECE THAT I MADE UP IN PRO-E. It is a oil gauge.  and this is what i did for the back.  | ||
| Crazyman54783 |
I tried to make the dash stock looking so i put the stickers that are on the stock plastic dash on the aluminum dash. I worked for a company that had a water jet... very nice to work with. | ||
| Brinnutz |
Ahhh, so those are just the LED bulbs..Unique! | ||
| Crazyman54783 |
Ya I made them interference fit so they are grounded by the chassis so i dont have any ground wires to deal with. I just bought the LEDs from superbrighteleds.com the two in the center are 15° and the two outside ones are 100° so that people on the side of you can see. I asked superbright if they were okay in the weather and they said yes so we will see. | ||
| Crazyman54783 |
brinnutz this is what you could do I dont know if the m2 is like this or not but we could figure out something. I need the aluminum plate to mask the holes in the tail.   [IMG]  |
