Ghetto modding your F3 Tail, PIX!!
#12
when i converted to the 97-98 tail, it came with a bracket that secured the taillight mount to the frame instead of the plastic underneith.
i then removed the whole plastic piece (turn signals, license plate mount, and storage under the seat).
its one huge piece secured by 3 screws...
i stripped the turn signals and removed the metal reflector with pliers and bending except for 1 part that could be mounted to the taillight.
that's about it

haha thats awesome this is exactly what i did to mine when i first got it... i just chopped off the whole rear fender, ripped out the signals just like u did.... except i drilled holes into the remaining part of the fender underneath the tail light so i could bolt my liscense plate, which i had to bend the sides slightly to makes fit.... nice work man saves alot of money...

Heh I did nearly the exact same thing on my bike when I got it. I finally decided to pony up the cash and literally 2 days ago my clear alternatives rear integrated tail light came in and installed it. I'll say this; the stock lights are way more visible versus LEDs, even with the setup you've got now and like I had, but I like having yellow flashers and I like the aesthetics of the clear alternative light better.
