WingTip Fairing light/turn install with pictures
« on: June 10, 2008, 09:41:43 PM »

I purchased and installed the BT40 LED wingtip fairing lights from ElectraGlide Goodies.  Once received, I found it to be made by Biketronics and resold by EGoodies.  Both of them sell the kit for $99.95 plus shipping.

Below is a picture of the kit as received-2 LED's with wiring, connector plugs, and controller.

They work as a running light and turnsignal that flashes alternate of the MOCO signals.

The inner fairing has a rubber u channel sealing gasket.  Figure where you want to put the LED's and cut the existing u channel.  I used 3M black weatherstrip adhesive to a fix the LED strips and taped them overnight to hold in place.  The difference between these LED strips and the other flexible strips you see are that these have the u channel molded in/on them for the install over the inner fairing lip.

On 04's and 05's, you locate the front turnsignal plug and disconnect, and simply plug in the 2 plugs of the LED controller.

Here is a picture of the install with the OUTER fairing still off.

Thus far, I am happy with the result.  They can be seen from the side, rear, and to a lesser degree the front.  I did not want to drill any holes in the outer fairing for the aftermarket or MOCO lighted windshield strips.  If these fail or become a pain in R&R of the outer fairing, they can be easily removed, buy new weatherstrips and I am back to stock.

With the bixenon headlight and driving lights on, you couldn't see the front turnsignals that well.  This system at least works for me for now.  It won't be for everyone.  Naysayers can say their peace too.   :)

I will get some night pictures.

No, they don't have a good reputation but they can also be bought from the maker, Biketronics.

I am definitely not a photographer.  This was taken in the garage with  flash.  Regarding brightness, they are definitely brighter than my Kuryakyn LED front turnsignals and brighter than my MOCO LED spoiler lights on bags and tourpack.
