I love that Ocotillo Wells/Anza-Borrego area. Split Canyon and many, many other trails in that area are great.

I just got my edge tail light system today. It says not to use the stock flashers. If I do use the stock as some of you have, will I do any harm to the brackets that would mess them up if I wanted to go with the smaller flashers in the future?

no harm - I found i had to grind a tiny bit of the metal bracket that you screw into - to get it to fit.

Make sure you do it slowly and make sure its perfectly flat - this will stop the signals flopping around (so stop and test the fit continually).



Well, this is how I got them to fit; it all fits together and looks the part. Just strip the old stuff off and have a look at how to get it to work.

This will not affect anything should you want to put it back to stock.

Default Project edge tail light completed

Hey Barbz,

I figured out what you were talking about after I'd cut off a bit too much of the stock flasher holder. I reinforced it with a specially grinded flat washer on each side and they feel secure. It took the better part of the afternoon as I had to make to runs to the parts store for wire connecters. I didn't use the provided ones. Other than that everything went smooth. Thanks for the input.

Good stuff - I cut too much off one side before figuring out what impact it had. Second side is spot on.

If i get energetic I will fix it at some stage but until then it doesnt move around enough to cause a problem.

Cheers

Thanks, the rack is great, I have an old wolfman pack (1st generation) with 4 bungee cords coming out each corner - a $20 ebay find. It works like a charm.

I wish Edge would make a brighter led for their kits, the smoked one is a let down on intensity and sets you up for an accident!

Last week before I got my UPS I called Forest at Wheeling Cycle and asked about my order. When I was on the phone with him out of curiousity I asked what a replacement lens cost, he said $5. You could order yourself a red one to replace the smoke. BTW that was my fear with the smoke lens. Thanks for confirming my su****ion, well that and what a cop might say about its street legal-ness...

Thanks for the pricing info, but too late I made my own.
