Default Hotbodies Racing Flush Mount LED Front Turn Signals

Has anyone ever used these on a 2002F4I? Are they easy to install? will I need to make my own holes on the fairings? Can you guys upload some pics of your flushmount front turn signals? Thanks

They are a pretty easy install but you will need to remove some of your farings. No cutting or anything. Not very visible from the front. Sorry no pics for you.

supposedly not too hard to install, but notvery bright either. not good for visibility. any front flushmount shouldn't be too challenging to install.

i went with the Proton flush mounts, but they're much more expensive too.

Although they are useless, they sure make the bike look nice.

I wired mine as running lights (most ppl with them do) as well as turn signals. True, they don't stand out as much as the stock ones.....but they are very visible (bright) at night. Throwing up some hand signals when necessary during the day doesn't hurt at all either.....and the cagers seem to notice hand signals more than blinking lights most of the time too......at least thats what Ive noticed.

I use hand signals all the time, esp on the freeway. Sometimes they don't notice the right turn hand signals, I've even stuck my leg out so they'd let me in.

I have Greggs customs ones and they are hardly visible for cagers during the day.

they are bright, atleast mine are, however they are not visable from the front at all mostly just the side. so good for pulling out of a gas station or something but not at signaling intent. oh well they are sexy.
