I'm in the process of fitting an E126 Givi Top Box light Kit to my Box.
To save me messing does anyone know the colours of the wires to the Brake Light .
Thanks in advance

That link can be downloaded to your pc....then you'll always have the workshop manual.

Just a couple of photo's of where you've set the lights into the top box....I was thinking of either behind the reflectors on the lid...or make a bracket that would fit under the topbox???

I bought this kit for my TopBox

It's the E470 fitted to our bike, I thought I'd found a light kit,  http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-Givi-E94-Brake-Light-Kit-for-the-E450-E470-Top-Box-Range-Stop-Light-/361909174629?hash=item544377c165:g:igMAAOSwtfhYqrXt  ... but I can't see how this would work???

This is the type of box...I'd had thought they would do a kit to fix behind the reflectors??  I'm toying with an idea of fitting those thin led strips behind the reflectors..???

Mines a Givi Blade
You remove the Red Lens and the existing Silver Trims and replace them with the same Trim (supplied in the Kit) which has LEDS built in.

I purchased a couple of strips of white LED's from eBay a few years ago, got my mate who can solder heaps better than me to put some end said on and I inserted them in a U shape behind the red bits of the top box, carefully routed the wires down to the seat and connectedness them up. Even now they are effective.

LED were on a white strip but I don't have the details any more.

I've just sent for 6 strips of LED's off the bay....I've had a quick look at the top box and I think they'll fit behind the reflectors ok.
