i just wanted to let you all know that these turn signals arent really that great. they cost somwhwhere around 45$. i put some on my bike and have not been pleased. i was first told that no mods would be necessary and the only thing on the back is the wires. there is a big round piece of plastic that the bulb is recessed to that is about an inch in diameter and comes out at least an inch. this isnt too user friendly on a cbr 1000. it was not just plug ans play. i decided to cut some stuff off the signal rather than modify my plastics. anyway, the lens simply clips on. it is not attached really well. it comes off very easily. i was ok with them until i returned from a ride and looked down to see one of the lens covers missing. not sometihng i would expect if i payed 45$ for them. im sure you guys already know, but the 3 M tape is a one time use only thing. so if you put it in the wrong place or you decide you dont want them anymore, they are no good to anyone. i hope the picture loaded correctly, if not, ill try again.

just to let you all know, i put some lockhart philips on it now and they are great. they are the short stalks that look like an arrow. the front were dual fillament so they are somwhat stock. with a little bit of solder and heat shrink, they not only work well, but they look good. i think i actually like wiring now. check my profile in the near future, i should have some pics on there soon

Give www.fendereliminators.net a try. I just got a pair of thier flush mounts for my 600RR and they are great. They are smaller LED ones like these but they have a lot better mounting system.
