Thinking about TricLED lights

[BAL50]

I have run brake turn set from spyderpops very good instructions , tricleds instruction were not as thorough as spyderpops

OK then,
Reference to posts 14 and 15 above from Bob and Ric --- is there more to this seemingly simple procedure ?
Removed said 8 screws and the panel won't budge at all !!
And it's not like I'm a newb at removing plastic bits, gawd knows the FJR had many, but I really, really don't want to be buying plastic cement after I've used the pry bar - kidding here ! Or maybe not, LOL

Sad in Sacramento :sour:
Please send replies in a plain brown wrapper so as not to humiliate me (really kidding now - flame on folks)

I,m thinking of adding the extra brake and tail lights that are plug and play.Since i plan on buying a trailer in the future will the wiring thats plug and play for the trailer wiring all plug together?Since it,s apart i would like to do it all at the same time.

:shocked: There's eight of them...
Four up around the edge of the top trunk.
(Two in the center only hold the latch in place: leave them alone...)
And two more hidden down in the top rear corners of the saddlebags.

Thanks Bob,
My bad - I typed 6 instead of 8 (post edited)
The center two -- I already figured to leave alone but only after I'd loosened them
Looks like it's going to require more force and finagling than I've been willing to apply. :banghead:
I'll give it another try this weekend. I'll keep you updated with the positive result.

Getting that bodywork "unwrapped" from around the sides of the bike... is a real bitch! nojoke
You quickly find out that it wants to hang up in the grabrails. :gaah:
Take your time, and let patience guide you...good luck! :thumbup:

 

[HayRog]

YES !!

Turns out my helper, Deb, has more patience than me (not surprising LOL)

Ten minutes removal and replacement. Now to order the light kit.

Thanks again Bob .... and Ric, for the instructions.

Digging deeper next time to get to the strut for the top case.

This video may help anyone thinking of installing the Rear LED's. This installation is for the Spyder RT Rear LED Saddlebag Run/Brake/Turn (pr) by TricLED but will show how to take your panels apart and access the wiring.

^^^^ Thanks Ric ^^^. Going to save me a lot of potential headache.
