I'm going to move my license plate and mount it with two LED bolts (12v). Do I need to do anything special with the power or can I just splice to the original wire? I've seen some talk about a resistors and fuses, but that was with turn signals. Anybody know for sure?

hey where did you buy those?

 

[tom_di]

ebay EBAY! EBAY!!! I love it. I got these and a set of flush mount turn signals for $40 including shipping! I looked at a couple of bike shops and "WOW"! I just laughed and walked out. The pair would have cost me well over $100!

They also have colored lights (I almost bought blue) but I firgured my plate will be hard enought to see. I got the turn signals from them too. Again, I almost bought the blue ones... but then, turn signals should be amber.

Wow those are gonna look really nice when you get it all put together

I had to drill the license plate frame and license to make the led bolt fit. Here's the pic:

Mini,
Did you cut the original wire and splice the 2 new ones to the old 1?

No, the original plug is still there. I still have to go to radio shack and look for a compatible plug.

nice how much rewireng was involved

Just take the two + wires and wire it together and the same for the 2 -s from each wire and put together. Wire it directly to the original license plate wire. That's about it.

Looks Great. Good Job.

Got the same set of led bolts from ebay, was very easy to install, they provide plenty of light. hope the pics help

 

[tom_di]

great pics! I was too intent on getting it done to remember to take any. Did you use proper wire connectors (like I had to go back and redo) or did you just twist 'em and wrap 'em in electrical tape (like I did originally)?

 

[CSBrad]

I think I wanna put those on my bike.

For any electrial modification check that the mod works first by using wirs splices-tiny clamps that clip onto the wire and the intended mod wire. The best way is then to actually spice into wires and soder them, then use either wire loom or heat shrink to finish job. Forget about using electrical tape, it gets messy like a rats nest of wires and don't keep moisture away from connections.

Yep, solder and gel filled heat shrink. Once you know they work.

yea I wired everything up first to make sure it worked then soder the wire connections an taped them up w/electrical tape. I also wrapped the led wires behind the licence plate an up through the bike. Took about an hr from start to finish.
