LED second Brake Light install
« on: May 05, 2013, 06:04:30 PM »
Thanks to Alans1100 I purchased the LED light bar to add some brake lights to me 1100 :

For $4.23 I cant complain.

Here are some pictures of my install. I decided to forgo height and install it below the top box, so I can take it on and off quickly.

Great work there Martin, and your young bloke looks over the moon to be in the garage with Dad and helping.

The slide show, shows great detail for other members to follow, thanks for posting.

looks ok.

Heather wants me to do something similar on the trailer as well but I'll look at that sometime later.

Not a great pic......but here is the LED brake on my old 1100......light integrated into the factory Topbox handle. Box handle cut out then light inserted and sealed from within the box.

Cheers




Nice work on yours ruSTyeb

Mine arrived today and although RuSTy's looks good I want to mount mine up high like Alan did. Can't complain about the quality for the price.  :thumb

David Silver Spares, mines an 08 but I got the part no from Honda Aust website & emailed them & asked if they could supply.
Got it no worries made my own loom & spliced into the existing wiring.
Came colour matched all the drilling dimples are already on the underside of the Top Box
