Has anybody out there ever changed their rear tail/stop light on their ST? I didn't have to, but during the installation of my new additional LED turn/stop lights I had to get that the tail/stop light wires to tap in. Holy cow! How do you spell BURIED by little hands? In the end, I came up with what I believe is a better solution.
Not at the moment I don't know, but I will need to before too long when I get my center light and a few other rear end LED upgrades on my ST-S.Quote:

It can be tight but fyi each of the tail light housing is mounted by only 2 torx bolts got to feel for location & then some. :banghead: When I added the transmitter for my wireless brake light i went deep enough to remove the lower cover all the way. It did help some & that was after Tricled installed my light stips (long led)& Rivico S.O.M.A. Lights (short led) by another bud it can be a rat nest of wires. But proper amount of zipties& wire loom can clean that up:thumbup:.
We have an '09 GS, After replacing tires that were 9y ears old, hard as a rock, I replaced all bulbs with LEDs, front markers to tag light. In the rear, i didn't go with new full LED housings ($239 vs $15), just replaced the bulbs . *Except Head Lights; the transformers on HID & LEDS cause radio interference, which is unacceptable to the mrs. Headlights are PIAA 4100k Halogen.
