    Right, i have a strip of white LED lights.. they are going down the front scoop on the side fairings.
    where is the best place to wire them into??
    my headlights are unplugged due to the headlight covers...
    I want them to be on if the engine is on, not a seperate on off switch... so sidelights? main battery somewhere, but like i said, not on all the time, only when engine is on..

    any help much appreciated ta, Mel x

    well, we only had the make a tiny tiny hole, somewhere you cant really see it so gonna be dead easy to take off again :) my bike was virtually all black, problem was, it was too black, so i have started to break it up a bit with white accessories. so far i've had my seat customised (black and white), white hel brake lines, white headlight covers (apparently 50% like 50% hate, with others), and now i have white led strips on the front. they appear to be a bit bluer than the sidelights, but like i said, i can take them off, and they are going to provide a light in someones mirrors, as they are quite bright, being as i don't have headlights anymore..

    pics can follow, as we are not finished. :)

    ah balls having a bit of trouble here.. they look awesome (even if i say so myself) :) but do you think i can get them to come out properly on pics? Noooooooooo

    it looks quite lame on the pics... haha

    I am thinking video rather than pics, or failing that, if you all drive to the Oakdene cafe on wednesday night, i'll be there haha

    i've added 3 pics to my album, although it really doesnt look the same on photo. they are very bright, with a slightly blu tinge, and i dont have my headlights running as you can see.
