Well I finally received my order from Chrome Glow. First off... hats off to chromeglow, their customer serivce is outstanding. I would strongly recommend them to anyone wanting to change over to LEDs. The products seem to be good quality and everything was described perfectly on their web page. I got exactly what I ordered and here are the numbers:
4707-14 9" flexible Array-- Red with brake and blinkers
4000-22 Flexible 40 Amber Array
2050-0076 Metric stabilizer for the LEDs.... This one peice worked for the entire bike.
4710 Run-Turn-Brake controller for metric cruisers
6122-00 Dual Element Circuit .... this allows you the run the front lights as markers and blinkers.
The install was very easy. The heardest part was thinking about where and how to mount everything.

I decided to mount the Metric stabilizer and Run-Turn-Brake controller under the rear fender. Here is a quick shot of the ***testing phase before I cleaned everything up. *** light blue is the Stabilizer and the orange one on the side rail is the Run-Turn-Brake controller.

Everything worked perfect and is was time to clean it up. I used heat-shrink on everything I could, then finished it up with electrical tape.

The fronts were even easier. I didn't get any picture during the install, because it went so fast.** I will post up some pictures later on of how I mounted them though... the battery died on the camera.**
I decided not to use the Dual Element Circuit. I just used the front LEDs for blinkers. I will keep the Dual Element Circuit, just incase the police pull me over for not having front markers.
Here are a couple of videos.
THis is what the Run-Turn-Brake controller will do for the rear light. I really how it like split up the running lights. ** Also you can remove a jumper the so it won't blink when you are applying the brake. I decided to keep in**

Front LEDs

For some reason the lights look like they are blinking in the video.. Hmm maybe a camera issue.. anyway here is a shot with the bike in direct sunlight.

FYI,
If you have messed with your rear lights and have come across the little black connectors, all they are is a junction point for the *blue wires that is your keyed battery power and the grounds. ** I cut them out, but kept them incase I wanted to use them later for something.
Blue wire = for the front and back is the KEYED POWER.. RUNNING LIGHTS
Black wire = Ground
The other colored wires are going to be your directional power wires. Sorry I don't remeber the colors.
I used a hair dryer to to bend the LEDs around the forks. I found it easier to bend them as I putting them on. ** Be very careful, if they aren't warm enough you will brake the LED ciruit board.
Easy install, just take your time.. If you have quesitons, let me know!
