Premium Member wickedtwister Posted May 24, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted May 24, 2015 This is a quick how to on installing my LED panels. This How to is written as if the stock turn signals are already removed. If you wish to retain your stock signals you will need a turn signal splitter from motodynamic or let me know with your order and i will splice the factory style female connector into you LED panels. [span]1: Remove the Front and Rear seat. 2: Remove the Body panels between the seats and over the tail light. 3: Remove all the Bolts and screws holding the side panels on. (dont forget about the 6 push pins on the underside of the bike) 4: To remove the side panels grab the rear of the panel near the tail light and gently pull straight out from the tail light. 5: Gently pull the side panel out and away from the bike. 6: Take the Panels to a work bench and removed the 3 round clips holding the panels in place. Only 2 shown here. 7: Insert your new panels in place of the old ones, and replace the clips. (Note picture below does not have the clips installed. also this was taken before i put the wire loom on the power wires on this panel yours will look different. ) 8: Route the wiring harness though the following hole in the frame (Important: do not route though the hole in front of that or when you put the rear seat on it will pinch the wiring) 9: Route the wiring to the left hand side of the bike by the connectors. Any slack can be stored in the area behind the storage compartment. (Ignore the clutter in my rear compartment. I have the PCV, Autotune, and Toll road pass modules back there so space is hard to come by. ) 10: Hook up the harness to the factory wiring harness. Black to Black, Grey to Grey. 11: Repeat for both sides of course and then reinstall the panels in the reverse order. 12: Enjoy your new turn signals.

Premium Member motomeek Posted June 19, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted June 19, 2015 So I went to check my lights today and noticed one of the nine LEDs on my right panel were out. [attachment id=581" thumbnail="1] Once I got home and opened it up, I noticed one of the bolts that fastens the panel to the frame is above that same LED that was out. I unscrewed it... and found this. [attachment id=583" thumbnail="1] The bolt had gone through some of the glue. Once I took it off, the light is back up and running. So for now, I've just screwed the bolt on loosely until I can purchase a shorter bolt. Then I'll grab a glue gun and close up the hole. I checked the left side and though it is touching the glue, it didn't penetrate it. But I've loosened it a bit just to make sure. So @wickedtwister, maybe make the glue on that one a bit shorter in height to accommodate the stock bolt? Instagram: @meekmade | You don't need to flat foot a bike to ride it.

Premium Member wickedtwister Posted June 19, 2015 Author Premium Member Share Posted June 19, 2015 Thanks for catching this. I can make the glue thinner but the height of the leads on the back of the led are the same and you could have this issue again. I did see that it was close but I didn't have any issues with my bike. (Similar to your left side I guess) You could stack a few washers under the bolt head to keep it from going down as far. Sorry you ran into this issue. Let me know if you need anything else from me. I will try to source some shorter bolts or something and start including them in the kits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member motomeek Posted June 19, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted June 19, 2015 No prob! Good idea on the washers. At least the LED still works! That's all that matters!! If you find a recommended bolt length, let me know! I probably won't be able to fix this until next week. Instagram: @meekmade | You don't need to flat foot a bike to ride it.
