I just put in my clear alternatives smoked today. I used a non load dependant relay from custom led.com. I believe it was 20 bucks or so and will work with any combination of led's. The stock relay is located under the left upper faring and it simply replaces the stock one. I also have led fronts and they flash correctly without having to worry about resistors heating up and melting my plastics. Hopethis helps.

What brand of light are you using? Does the connector have 3 wires in a triangle pattern.. 2 on one side and a on the other?

Well.. either way the connector on my light was insanely tight. Mine had excess plastic all around it. Even with that trimmed off I had to put the 2 ends in my hand and squeeze like hell.

If not this is what I would reccomend. It's a relay. The resistors require alot more work. This just plugs in.

i have the clear alternatives integrated tail light and the problem is that when i went to connect the tail light, the two connectors wouldnt fit together........ if that makes any sense lol its like the clear alternatives tail light connector is not shaped right.... square peg round hole kinda deal lol

wish i would have thought about the digital-relay before i solderd those monster-*** ceramic resisters in-line on my harness........ what really makes me mad is that i replaced my truck flasher relay with one of them about a week before i did my bike...lol

i may cut them out of my wiring loop and do the relay this weekend....if its like my truck...it clicks really loud so i might not leave the blinker on as much...
