    My friend Mike helped me with the installation of the rear fender LED light. In my opinion it looks excellent and functions great. What modifications have you made to your bike that made the look POP? Let me know and share with the rest of us. Let's Ride!

    Sandman, I enjoyed helping you out with the light install.

    Thanks for posting this tutorial! I was going to hardwire my lights in. I didn't even think about cutting the wire connection from the stock lights plug and splicing the wires to there. Can't wait to install my DK Customs stealth light bar and Kellerman Atto turn signals.

    Your video is the best on line. Was able to do my own work thanks to you.

      Way to go. However, I have to thank my buddy Mike. I refer all my electrical work to him. I'm good mechanically. Thanks for watching and stay in the wind.

      How did you guys get the brake light and running late to work together? When I hook my up one cancels out the other my brake light works but running late does not.

      Also, I had to watch the video a couple times to see, did you guys run the turn signals?

    Nice video but does the fender light blink when the left indicator blinks. The way it's wired it should but I couldn't tell for sure from the test in the video.

    • @sandmanrides4318

      I rigged it so it does not blink. My next one will blink.

    I have a question how wide is is it? Im thinking about choping the fender on my older sportster and im looking for a light that will fit under the fender.

      Mine measures 7" wide. It fits perfectly under the fender for stock 2022 HD Sportster Iron 883. Good luck.

    Did you try de-pinning the original pigtail and then re-using it on the new brake light? Wasn't sure if it was possible.

    • @sandmanrides4318

      We did not try depinning the pigtail. It is possible as I've seen it done but we decided to slice and dice. Thanks for watching.

    Hi
    I have a iron 2015 with tail light..
    Before the female connector I have 4 wire but after the male connector only 2..
    Im very confused because they not look like you video..
    Do you think I need to use the center wire Go to the tail ligth?

    • @sandmanrides4318

      I don't know your wiring diagram. Identify which wire works which light by using a multimeter. Then attach the fender light wires according to the diagram in the video time stamp at 2:48. Also, check the diagram on this link. Hope it helps.

    Why is it when you turn on the left side both of the tail gate light and left turn lights on? But, the right only by itself?

    • @sandmanrides4318
      @sandmanrides4318  2 місяці тому

      I don't have that experience. All I can say is test your right side connection. Make sure everything is properly connected.

      It's holding up really well. I've had the bike out in the rain and scorching heat. No problems yet.

      None whatsoever. The double-sided tape I used is just like 3M tape. We'll see over time. Thanks for watching.

      That sounds awesome. It dramatically improves the look. I added the Magic Strobe and it lights it up.

  • @AndrewBlodgett-rq7fs

    Your new light flashes with your left side blinker because the blinkers and brake lights share a wire.
