This weekend I will be partaking in my personal implementation of this mod:
http://www.600cc.org/forum/f91/rear-fender-led-brake-light-29748/
I got the amber LEDs in the mail this week, to go along with the red. I posted some in the thread above as well, last post indicates the wiring schematic I need to tap into the stock brake and turn wires.
I plan on running the red LEDs as done here, all the way down. I am still deciding on the amber...either run them side by side the whole way, or, cut the amber so they are shorter (50-75%). Why? I believe that while braked or braking (thus engaging the red LEDs) that a flashing yellow of the same size right next it, may not be as eye catching as a light flashing of a shorter length...I think itll be more clear and engaging/noticeable. I'd like to hear others thoughts though.
I may even place the amber a little further away, not right against the red LEDs, but would need to relook at placement. Also, the routing whole in the little dimples would work better if they are side by side. If I place them someplace else I'd likelt need another entry point into the rear. So will see!
I have the stronger tape, circuit (even if not totally necessary), RTV, etc. Just need time to put it all together. More to come.
