Ok, I"ve completed the install using the brackets you made for me. I cut them down to what I needed, and painted them black. Thanks again! I should have taken pics before and after to see the brackets raw, then after the fact...oh well.

The lights are 6 years old...this is bike #3 for them. I was going to try something else, but these fit so well in there I just used 'em again.

Thumbs up extra lite's

Looks good. I would just put some wire loom to cover your wires there. It will protect them and look at little better. Just my two cents.

It's not done yet. They'll be shrink wrapped...thanks for the input though! You never know when you might miss something.
