    Default Auxiliary lights

    For the F3t, and other models, when they say 'plug and play' for the fog lights does that also mean that their power switch is already run on the bike to the bars, etc or would that have to be done as well. Is it true plug them in and off you go or is it: plug them in, run the wiring, maybe add a relay, mount the switch and then play?

    Default I have found.....

    Usually the wiring harness has the plug there but you have to get the hook up such as lights switches etc and install them. You can also use them for installing other acc if you don't use them for what they were intended for..

    Our kit is plug and play just like it sounds. I'll be doing a video of the install today.

    Wait for Lamonster's light kit.

    I have the BRP ones installed and while they really are plug n play, the quality is not there for the price. The wiring and relay for the lamps is already on your bike. The lamps plug in to connectors already at the mounting locations and the same is true for the switch that mounts on the dash panel. Lamont's should be the same but much better quality LED lights and likely much easier mounting. The BRP ones are a SOB to install.

    I shot the video yesterday but in the middle of it some guy started banging on my door to get into the shop and it messed me all up. We're going to shoot again and show the install and how easy it is with all the right connections. The video I shot yesterday was 4.5 min. and that was installing the switch and one light. The whole install should be less an hour depending on your skill level. The kit will retail for $220.00 for everything and we're working on a headlight kit to go with it. Hold tight.

    Thanks for for the update! I will definitely be waiting for your video/kit as well as the headlight. Consider my interest held!

    Quick question: will the headlight kit also fit the F3t Limited?

    Default JUST IN TIME!

    Woo Hoo! This is great news! I just canceled my order for the stock fog lights from my dealer. They said it was "already in" and something about "under warranty if we install", and finally wanted to know why?!?!

    Question.....regarding the headlights.

    Is the area behind the bulbs tighter on the 2016 F3 Limited, or are the bulbs you are using larger than others such as the XenonDepot H4 with the flexible heat sink?

    Tell your dealer: "Sorry, the answer to your question is on back order. We'll let you know when it's in."

    Per the owners manual it's a whole lot easier to get to the bulbs with the F3 T/L (don't have to remove the gauge console). My question is will the Xenon Depot bulbs with the flexible heat sink fit/work on the F3 T/L???
