ENGINE LED's

Not an F- 3, but it's all relative. My 2014 RT has very Bright Amber LED's in the front grill area .... inside the front AIR scoops ... inside all the air vents where there are grills ......and the front Grills of the Engine......I made all mine because there was nothing that was anywhere near bright enough for my purpose........A lot of folks saw them at Spyderfest 2016, maybe someone took Pics :dontknow: .......I did Amber because they qualify as MARKER LIGHTS per Fed D.O.T. regs.....Mike :thumbup:

Got mine at SpyderPops. I have them set on purple, but they can be just about any color, or cycle through the colors, pulse, etc.

Are they directly wired to battery or do they only come on when you start the engine? Any issues with them interfering with any other lighting on your F3? How long have you had that kit installed?

I've got the Wiredux engine bay lights on my F3-S, installed at the 2015 Spyderfest. I have them on the rotating cycle. I don't think I've ever turned them off and they're working just fine. I installed the Wiredux engine bay light on my wife's 2016 F3-T. She, too, has the lights on a cycle. They come on with the key, I believe. They're one of our favorite mods!

Darn, if it only got dark here during riding season. That's why I finally ended up selling my Glo Ryder wheel lights.

When it was dark enough to display the lights, it was getting uncomfortable cold to ride. :sour:

I can't answer directly because SpyderPops installed them and I didn't watch it being done. But they only come on when the key is on. I've had them since the first or second week in June.

SpyderPops dont look as bright as the Walmart LED's. Which is fine since I would never buy a SpyderPops product again.

I have it coming off the battery running to a fuse box. So far no interference. I've had them for about 3 months

Thanks for your reply.

Where did you get your setup?
Did it come with the direct wired setup with the inline fuse?

Nice!

Do you have the intake grill LED light kit in addition to the engine light kit, or is all of the light coming through the front grill coming from the engine light kit alone?

OK. Not a direct wire setup. If they can come on when the engine is off, then they would be direct wired to the battery. Thanks! :thumbup:

I got mine from WireDux and could not be happier http://www.wireduxled.com/spyder-f3-engine-light-kit/

Had the guys at the shop install them so they light up when the key is in the 'on' position.

Awesome!

So, just curious, why didn't you go with a direct wired setup so you can activate them when the engine is off (when at a show, in a parking lot, etc.)??? Observations?

The intake are in addition to the engine. I also have some to add once I put the bumpskid on. On our RT I routed a channel in the bumpskid to recess the light strips and give them a little protection. Mine are wired through a separate fuse block with give me six extra circuits. I added a switch in one of the knock-out locations on the left hand side below the seat. This way I can have them on even if the bike is off. I am going to install a small battery meter that has a relay which will de-energize the fuse block if the battery voltage drops below a certain level.

Don't have any photos. I have the Wiredux engine light kit with added ground effects lights. Also have the intake light kit and the new dual color run turn strip above the intake. I also have the Wiredux brake/turn LEDs on the rear. Oh, almost forgot, I have the A arm strips too. I have the F3S.

Wife has the run/turn/brake and A arm lights on her RTS.
