bulky turn signals

Depending on how much of the original plate/turn signal plastic piece you remove you can mount the plate to bottom of the seat. There is a flat piece that is the perfect width to mount the plate to. Just got to drill some holes in it and bolt it up. It puts the plate up in the tail and gives it a very clean look. The only problem I have had is when my half mile dirt driveway gets muddy the rear tire throws mud on the plate. I usually just stop at the end of the road after slinging all the mud off the tire and wipe the plate.
that does really look clean.. i love it...............something to think about.

Look at my pics; I did both. Integrated tail light is about $110, front signals like $25. GET BIG ONES, and AVOID LEDs. A lot of the aftermarket LED signals are too small to cover up the huge holes the F3's have in the front fairings, and are dim as hell. Get bulbs (which are usually bigger, anyway)
If your wallet's empty, check out my rear flushmount howto:

Though I don't reccomend those LED's i used.

The guy I bought my f3 from spliced the turn signal wires with the brake lights so when you would turn on the left signal the back left brake bulb would blink while the right would just stay lit lmao Of course he told me that it was an aftermarket integrated back turn signal. I didn't find out until much later but I just left it alone. I figured the back looks great as is and it was apparently good enough to pass at my endorsement test

there goes my project for the day..........flush mounts are too small like you guys said. and my integrated tail got broken by kids.
you wouldnt be able to see it if i glued it, since its just a corner.
but they lost all the little pieces. F**K, F**K, F**K. out of $100 bucks.
time to get a new one. and some flush mounts that will work.
