Default Flush mount lights

Looking to get a pair of flush mount lights for the front of my 03 600rr. Just wondering if there are any that allow you to keep the running light and are not a big pain to install? I've read many different posts, but didn't find what I was looking for. Although the hotbodies have my attention, but need to know about the running light and the installation.
Thanks

Good question. I was looking at the hotbodies as well. I had assumed the marker light still worked. I've read one member here wiring both leads from the signals and the marker light to the same LED flush mounts. I'm not sure if I'd trust that, two 12v wires hitting the LED at the same time... can't be good. So… now I'm looking again.

Come on everyone. I'm looking for lights to buy for Christmas and to install while my bike is stripped down. Just looking for ideas before I make a bad buy.

On my seca I drilled a small hole in a single filament light and soldered two leads to an led put it throgh the hole and "viola" two filaments ...kinda! I am getting small tear drop smoke lights for my 600rr and i plan to do the same thing I will take sep by step pics so you can see them. Use the leads for the led as running lights they are not to bright but they work at night they arn't good for blinkers can barley see them in day.

I just bought the hotbodies and they are sweet but make sure youir buy load resistors with themif you dont want the led pattern to be super fast. I had to buy the load resistors because it was blinking so fast it looked like a solid yellow light. But the hotbodies are kool!!!

These Protons are supposed to be pretty cool. They have the running light wire. Their web site says soon available for the 03-05 CBR600RR

I like the built in blinker-speed regulation. And they look pretty cool too. Maybe not as good as some others, but definitely a good looking set. Good price too.
