• 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.

New fog lights installed

Looks great. I wish I had the knowledge to do an installation like that on my F3T. I would love to have fog lights, but I refuse to pay the price that BRP wants for them.

Made my own brackets from stuff laying around my shop. Cost around $55.00 with the lights and switch.

Did you check Lamonster garage web site. He got some for a pretty good price.

These are from eBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/Universal-2...ash=item41990d103f:g:2FYAAOSw2VJVfqw1&vxp=mtr
and I bought a complete wiring harness from Oreilly Auto that was pre wired for $19.95. Here are a few pictures with just the fender tips shining, then the the lights on. Pictures of the switch and also switch with the power on with switch off and switch on. Picture of the lights on the bike.

The first picture is with the bike power completely off. Once you power up the bike the red light indicates off and the green indicates on.

Here is the wiring harness I used. Couldn't find it at Oreilly web site but this is the same one

Need help with the brackets . . .

I've noticed that there are two different vent pieces. One is for models with lights, the other is for models without driving lights. When you changed over the body panels did you notice these were different?

What kind of material did you use to build the mounts? Did your mount serve as mount for the pedestals that came with the lights? So you made a mount for the mounts? I'd really like to see the brackets, as I'v been thinking about how to engineer this myself.

Thanks,

These are mounted in the vents that comes stock on the bike. I just mounted them in the top vent hole. I took some 1" flat bar and bent them to fit my liking. It took several attempts before I got them right. I think 3/4" flat bar would work better. There is a hole on back of the lights to install a small bolt. Just bent the flat bar and made a bend somewhere between a 45 and 90 degree bend. Drill the holes in the brackets and bolt it to the light and drill holes on the back side of the vents to mount the brackets to it. If you look real close you can see my brackets when you walk up to it.
