I've just installed the Kuryakyn run-brean-turn (ky-4710) purchased on Amazon for $64, shipping included. The 4710 is for all metric cruisers which saved me about $40 compaired to the (ky-4612) which is suposed to be the plug and play. I personaly don't feel there is any way the plug and play could be much easier, but to each their own, I like to save some bones. Here's how I completed it.
1- removed the seat, tool holder, rear fender and disconnect the negative on the battery.
2- clear about a 4 inch section exposing the wires running to the tail end of the light, I based this on how much I'd need to hide the kit under the seat.
Figure out which wires goes to what just by looking at light connections
3- cut and cleared off all wires except the Black which is the ground
4- Attatched the 3 mail adaptors (provided in the kit) to the wires coming from the front of the bike
5- Attatched the 3 female adaptors (provided in the kit) to the wires running to the tail end
6- this is the "hardest" part, jam the spliced blue (running light) wires into the grove of the pruple t-bar adaptor that's provided then clip closed to hold them.
7- connect the male to the input of the converter, the female to the output, and the purple tbar to the power.
8- connect the grounding wire, I used the bolts on the seat lock bar
9- reattatched battery and test

You forgot one thing! Why did you install this in the first place. Post some pics!

A marvel of electronic wizardry, this module makes single filament or single circuit turn signals on the rear of the bike function as running lights, turn signals, and brake lights! The module wires in beneath your seat and is intended for use with L.E.D. or Halogen Silver Bullets or other custom turn signals you have installed on your bike. The unit will work fine with stock turn signals as well, but you will have to find red lenses from another source.

ATTENTION: This kit is required when installing L.E.D. lights as turn signals on a motorcycle with a single turn signal indicator light. If this diode kit is not installed, power will back feed across the indicator light and all turn signals will flash at once.

I personally installed this because I'm in the middle of having my rear fender cut off about 5inches from the seat. To save a little cash for the time I'm going to usethe stock turn signals with red bulbs as the running, break and turn signals. I'm also moving the lisense plate to the side.

How about a picture of where you tucked it and how.

How about a good video on how they actually look in daylight conditions and @ night?

Thanks!

Nice job but yes pictures please.

I actually just got all my new lights hooked up and ready. I'll get some video and more pics, but needless to say they look great. They aren't ass noticable in the day, but that's because I purchased the bullets from cruiser customizing. At night they are perfect with the bright LED's.

On a side note, is that the stock tire on the rear of your bike?

 

[abacon]

Yup, I'm waiting till it's a little more worn before I go out and buy a 240 or 250. Once I get the new tire it'll fil out the rear fender nicely.

Here's a solid picture of how I have it tucked away under the seat. kinda messy, but there's not much room.

What size is the stock rear?

Can you post pics of the new tire when you get er done? Thanks
