they look like a good investment and I assume it would be easier for dumb asses in cars to see ur turning, opposed to the small signal.
Why do you need clear ones?

I bought that tail light for my bike. No complaints, I really like it. I haven't hooked up the turn signals yet because I still need to get the resistors ordered. Hopefully will get that done soon.

I meant "clear alternatives" as in the brand Clear Alternatives, because they make the same integrated tail light but are more reputable. But also cost about double.

Yeah, that's what i'm worried about too, the wiring. If you manage to get it all wired up could you take pics possibly a vid of the turn signals and brakes in action?

I thought those lights are Plug and Play or Am I wrong?

Supposedly yes. But if there isn't built in resistors then the turn signals would flash all funky.

It's not that the blinkers flash funky, but very rapid. I personally prefer the rapid blink,
because it is different and people notice things out of the norm.

^ Are you talking about the 2 circle ones? Or are they coming out with a whole new design? Any pictures? Tried looking on their site and only found the 2 circle tail lights.

As soon as I get the resistors I'll wire it up and show you how it looks. I can get a pic or video of how it looks now without the blinkers if you like. I've hooked it up before and they did flash fast so I know there aren't resistors built in. Other than that the taillight itself is plug and play and was designed nicely. All you do is pop out one of the bulbs and the plug goes right back in the integrated just like it was in the stock one. The plug confused me a bit at first until I realized how it plugged in. Hope this helps.
