Cougar Posted January 22, 2010 #1 Posted January 22, 2010 Kent, How do you do the blue/green light set up over the engine on QuickSilver? Is there a kit for that? Not sure if you ever did a write up about them or not. I think that looks very cool on your bike. Thanks for any info. Jeff
V7Goose Posted January 23, 2010 #2 Posted January 23, 2010 I just used a variety of LED lights form SuperBrightleds.com. No special kit, but if you don't mind figuring out which lights to put where and coming up with your own switch and wiring, it's pretty cheap to do that way. The easiest and brightest way is to buy a couple of their LED light tubes and put one under each side of the tank and one under each side of the trunk. But if you have the chrome carb covers, you need to use smaller LED pods. Goose
Cougar Posted January 23, 2010 Author #3 Posted January 23, 2010 Thanks Goose, No need for any relays or anything. just wire and and a on/off switch correct? btw were did you mount your switch? Jeff
V7Goose Posted January 23, 2010 #4 Posted January 23, 2010 No relays needed - LEDs pull such small current that they can be connected to any circuit without worry. I use a three-switch unit that mounts to the top of the master cylinder - one for aux dash lights, one for my courtesy lights (in the trunk, above the side bags, and a map light), and one of the engine accents.

Cougar Posted January 26, 2010 Author #5 Posted January 26, 2010 (edited) Goose, would this be the right direction? http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-bin/store/index.cgi?action=DispPage&Page2Disp=%2Fspecs%2FWFLB.htm and http://www.oznium.com/led-flex-strips maybe 2 of these under each side of tank and the other 2 on the rear someplace. 9.5 inches long and weather proof. Thanks, Jeff Edited January 27, 2010 by Cougar
