i will be doing that as well, i haven't yet because i am doing an HID retrofit so i don't know spacing...but basically....it's really just a matter of drilling a small hole in the housing and securing the light in the housing...there's really nothing special about it....if you get a "bulb" type LED you can mount the socket and secure it or if you get just a LED then you just secure the LED...just take your time drilling the housing and be sure to silicone the opening to maintain a seal from the outside elements....

in addition, if you really want to go nuts, you can separate the lens from the housing and make a truly clean job, but unless you are going to be doing halos or HID retrofit, don't bother too much work...

here are mine, let me start by saying that this is still work in progress, also youll see zip ties and thats because these are temp.Ive only had a chance to work on the center part of my bike, but I still need to work on the rear and Imhave problems deciding w h e r e to mount them on the front (since i dont want them visible). Im all ears for any suggestions, lots of lights left to work with and Ill continue to post pics through the entire process until I finish this project! laters. . .

leds on, flash off
