Thanks Dave your bike looks great! does your kury's have the smoke lenses?the other reason I'm changing over - I installed the priority lights controller so my back turn signals stay lit all the time hopefuly to be seen a little better.The parts guy told me I needed red on the back now I thought this would be a cool upgrade. Xkart.

I have them with smoke red/amber and they look great. I was going to go with the mini LEDs but I thought they would look to small on my "S". THe DD Bezels look perfect for size and are a 100% improvement over stock lenses. This is how Honda should be making them.

I just installed the reds in back and ambers up front yesterday. Installed the run-brake-turn controller as well. No smoked lenses for me; wanted to make the lights as bright as possible. Once of the best mods I have done. They look great and operate very well. Needed to add the load equalizer that came with the kit.

I have the chrome bezels with red in the rear and amber up front. Still very bright and has a ring around the bezels that gives some morelight from the side. I am very happy with them. For the guys who put in the run brake turn, I have a 06 1300R. Were they truley plug and play or did you have to cut and splice? Thanks, DJ

I put the deep dish amber up front. Waiting for the rear red triple wammy to show up. Back ordered till May. Do a search for the lenses. After I bought mine, I found them cheaper at a reseller.

The plug and play for the '05s is model 4611, but 06's need model 4610. Mine was plug and play in my eyes. I disconnected three connections and hooked the PNP module into it. I then tapped into the power supply and all was fine. The only problem I had was to find a good way of getting it to fit nicely under the left side cover. I did see on other posts the other day that there is confusion among the places that are selling the PNP modules. They are selling the wrong modules, so make a call to be certain you get the right model for the correct year of your bike.

I've also done this mod. I love the 2 extra running lights on the rear. Probably one of the safest mods you can do. I used the red lenses w/ the PNP module on my '06C. I used 4610, and it was truly PNP, no wire cutting at all. I also had to use the equalizer, even though I have the regular bulbs for the signals. I do have a 3 watt LED brake light though. Like sixgun mentioned, the hardest part was trying to fit it all under the left side cover. I think it took a grand total of 30 minutes to install the deep-dish bezels and lenses, the controller, and the post-installation amber beverage!

I also have a 06 and it is plug and play....although I am a little dense and had to reread the instructions a few times until the lights went on. :harder:

plug & play

I have the chrome bezels with red in the rear and amber up front. Still very bright and has a ring around the bezels that gives some morelight from the side. I am very happy with them. For the guys who put in the run brake turn, I have a 06 1300R. Were they truley plug and play or did you have to cut and splice? Thanks, DJ
From a previous post:
there are 2 models of plug & play controllers:
4610 for 1800 r/s 04+, 1800c 05+, 1300 r/s/c 06+
4611 for 1800 02 & 03, 1800c 04, 1300 r/s/c 03-05
i installed the 4611 on my '04 1300c tonight and it plugged in just like the instrucions said it would and it works great! you have to make sure you buy the right controller for your bike (see above) and it plugs right in to the wiring harness under your right cover. make sure you read the instructions and understand them. i've heard some feedback on some supplier's forums about how their unit wouldn't plug in, so they had to cut the terminals off and hard wire it, so they must have ordered the wrong unit. only thing i did different than the instructions was that they said to use one of those pinch connectors that bites into the wire for the power feed and i spliced the wire in as a hard wire for a better connection. now i have triple the lights on the back of my bike. :choppersm </B>
