Here is a shortcut that does not involve having to remove the wheels, jack up the Spyder, etc... I am not a mechanic. I did this install two months ago and have quite a few miles on both dry and wet roads. The lights work great and the duct tape is still very solidly in place. It is a pretty simple solution:
1. Hook up the LED Mud Flap Lights to the front fender tip lights using the directions provided by No Magic Neon.
2. Instead of removing the front wheel(s), run the wire from mud flap light to fender tip light inside the wheel well as shown in the next picture.

3. Liberally spread sealant
over the wire from mud flap light to fender tip light
4. Liberally spread sealant on the inside edge of the wheel well. Make the sealant bead wide enough to also adhere to the duct tape in the next step. Let the sealant dry on wire and on the inside fender edge for a few minutes until it becomes tacky but is still wet.
5. Adhere the wire to the inside fender well.
6. Cover wire with a good quality duct tape while the sealant is still highly adhesive. This will bond the duct tape to the silicone adhesive, covering the length of the wire. Make sure you also tape the wire to the mud flap to make sure it does not chafe on the tire.
