You should really search for an answer to your taillight question. TripageLED sells a mod 06 light that fits in the tail of your 07, along with the plate relocation bracket. This is your best and cleanest option. You can just go to autozone or whatever and purchase strip LEDs and mount them to the tail how you like, but it not as easy as it sounds, and you will end up with wires outside and all the like. I would just check out Tristians stuff, its great.

Besides, if there wasnt an integrated tail light, how do you think half the guys on the forum got em?

yep.. I actually recommend you only get a pipe with a carbon can, runs cooler and is less threatening to the light thats like right frigging next to it. Also, if you get the plate mount that hangs from the pipe, make sure you specify its 2bros when you order so you get the right one.

The light is no hard to install. It goes in the end of the tail. You have to cut the bottom part of your storage space off underneath you tail plastic. I didn't put an integrated tail into mine, I bought an 03-06 600RR regular oem taillight and installed it in my 07... I have to cut the black plastic under my passenger seat straight across going through the center of the bolt hole that holds the heat sheild.

a thread on 600rr.net
http://www.600rr.net/vb/showthread.php?t=106576

and a video on youtube

both show about the same thing.. Just make sure before you cut, you look at the light and determine about how much to actually cut off

well not to rectify a successful thread, but i did see, on here i might add, someone creating their own rear light setup. they basically drilled into their tail little holes for multiple ultra bright LEDs, he just stuck a tone of red ones on the end, some amber ones on each side, and put resisters in to make them work right. looked clean as hell if you ask me. plus it lit up the ENTIRE back side.

i couldnt find it on search , but it may be under onarium originals (sp?)
