ordered from ebay & installed (had to disconnect the whole mirrors for a perfect installation)
I'm very happy with the result because they improve the V-looks of the front of (the lights of) our great designed bike ;-)

That looks nice.

My 'evidence' is based purely on my experience but I really think having a non-standard light array at the front aids visibility to other road users.

I'm old enough to know better but don't

Thx;-)
That's also one of the reasons indeed.... Visibiltiy for the other drivers... The bike looks bigger also I hear...

Here in belgium , cardrivers are not always very friendly for bikers (that 10%!..)...
Still need a modulator and a red helmet and they will be more friendly :mfr_lol:.. Oh yes... The lights are not blue  :grin:

Of course, here they are...
Perfect delivery from the UK after 2 days into sweet Flanders ;-)
Didn't use the brackets but put them into the mirrors with the bolt at the back.  Had to open the mirrors for that.

Great! That was my next plan.. He put them on the license plate ?
Was also thinking putting white ones in the front and red ones in the back off our sidebags...  But issue when taking them off...
Can the admore topcase light be bought in the UK/ europe?  Guess the import taxes from the USA are too big...

Did you mount them by drilling into the mirror housing?

Had to drill only once inside : after the mirror is totally apart, there is a metal part with three holes for three bolts, there in the middle is a little mark where I have drilled the hole.  That's where the cable passes ...

In that way all the wiring is inside the mirror and you can see no cable at all...

Of course also 1 drill where the light is fitted outside to the mirror... Fits perfect, also with the great design of our bike...
You have to see the result... Perfect and just of fabric. ;-)
Looks great, and here everyone is looking at the bike... (I hoped that they were lookin at me,  not so... :mfr_lol:)
It's original and the bike looks better... So everyone can see me better coming.... Safety first :punk:
I have posted also a new picture (in that link) in light darkness where you see that they are even more bright in darkness... Just not too much in real life.
