Replacing/Adding tail lights for safety
« on: October 13, 2011, 03:03:22 PM »
I have a  2011 super 8 50 2T. 

I want to replace the brake light bulb with a flashing led bulb and/or add another tail light for safety.

Has anyone done this?  Any recommendations?

Thanks.

I installed a flashing strobe light and not LED. Connected it to the brake light line. Similar to this one:

Here is one that might interest you! It is not real easy but very worth the install.

You can but a standard flasher unit from any older G.M, Ford, ect. They cost about 10.00, and a very simple install. Cut the wire to thew lights, and add this unit in line. (one wire in, and one wire out.
