• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Installing Shad LED Brakelight Kit

This is going to be my first foray into wiring, so I've been trying to find a video to follow. I've just installed a Baker Built rack and the Shad 58X case, in preparation for a cross country trip later this month. Since I read a few comments that the rack could block the Spyder brake lights. I ordered the Shad brakelight kit. The information on the kit includes, "Requires tapping existing brake light wires," which I have never done.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a video or directions with pictures on how to proceed? I've done some web searches, but haven't found anything for the F3. I've got a 2017 F3-S. Thanks!
 
That light kit comes with how to instructions from Twisted Throttle
should be in the box.

Real easy. 3 wires: ground, run, brake. Remove rear seat, find connections going to tail light. Black is ground, white is brake, orange is run.
