and there's some prebuilt units out there that could be hacked into a rear
lens of a gen3 too I reckon might just take a little filler strips or something

A lot cleaner than the last time I seen it !

Did you have a fit and wash your bike or sumtin' ?
Nope. I knew there was a big storm coming so I parked it in the driveway for a day.

On my 90 I cut the mud flap off quite a bit too. I then removed the plate light but kept the wiring intact. Mounted the plate where the light was and then used "tag light bolts" and wired them into existing wires. They come in different colors and finishes, just look on ebay. I used only 2 led tag light bolts but you could use 4 if you want more illumination.

Talking

Here is a pic of mine with the turn signals taken off and put in the Brake light.


Just yesterday I bought a dual SS exhaust off Flebay, Can't wait to get it and get a rainy weekend to put it on.

indy, your tail is easier to put the signals into the tail since you have 3 bulbs. we only have two so you cant just rewire them cause then i'd have no brake light..

sides are red still. I just changed out the light plugs and I have pics. I may have to put up a new thread showing how I did it.

Default I'm exhausted

Thanks Indy and you are very welcome lol .........

Started working on the new Viper Race Can for the 1993

Looks great, sounds awesome ..........not finished yet tho
I have to pull a reseal the link pipe ......tiny leak
and I hate that kinda shyte don't ya know.

Also waiting an alum bar stock plug for the left side
my make shift cast iron plug is not going to do the job
(This will be temporary as I will add a second Viper
on the left ) not thrilled with the single can look
for the long term....... it's okay for now tho.

Going to be getting a set of these later again for the 1990
as well as the pipe covers fit spot on ....just have to make
a few retainer bracket ...... easy cheesy to do that too.

They are nice sound great......... real good in fact
a real throaty growl sweet : recommend them for sure
