Blazer LED White Foglights

SpyderGirl · April 22nd, 2009, 08:14 PM

So I installed these on my baby and I was shocked to see that they throw out a lot of light. I am hoping they will be a good attention getter for the cagers to see me better.

curious... how did you run the wiring?

SpyderGirl · April 22nd, 2009, 08:28 PM

I ran the wire through the hole where the fender mounts on the bottom, mounted the base over the hole in the fender, then wire tied it to the fender bracket behind the fender, ran the wire along behind the fork and along the brake line and wires on each side. It was quite easy and lots of clearance and slack without interference to the steering, wheel, or brake. I'd take a photo but it wouldn't come out.

keep an eye on the wiring for wear. I assume they are fused? As the front forks work up and down, they will rub, though you may not encounter any problems. If you do, armor it with some electrical plastic loom.

Looks great. I've thought of dong something similar, but didn't like the idea of having to run electrical down the forks to the wheel.

Making yourself more conspicuous...

The wires are wrapped an insulated in PVC waterproof wire sheathing and are not rubbing against the forks. There is plenty of slack. I turned the wheel full both directions.

I thought it would be hard, but it wasn't. I'll keep you updated on how they are holding up.

Very nice. Very clean looking as well. Before I did the HIDs I was looking into doing something similar.

Very nice instalation.

SpyderGirl · April 23rd, 2009, 09:19 AM

Thanks. I am happy at the way it turned out and the size and fit is perfect.

I'm still going to do the HIDs as well, never can be TOO visible.
