Per Red Barron's request here's my "How-to" for LED instalation. I ordered everything on Amazon aside from a toggle switch and priamary wire I picked up from walmart/autozone. The company I prefer to get my LEDs from is HitLights on Amazon, they have a great product at some awesome prices. A side note- when you order your LEDs from where ever you decide make sure they are 12v DC powered so you don't need any kind of inverter and also the weather proof LEDs will be slightly less bright as compared to te non weather proof due to the protective coating they put over them. Here's everything you will probably need for a basic install Yes the Monster is crucial to the sucess of your install The stuff - LED strip connectors - 5 meter strip of LED's of your color choice - 40ft of red/black primary 18ga wire - Electrical tape (you will need a lot of this if you want to hide the wire or you can get some heat shrink and Techflex) - Zip Ties - Crimper for the battery terminal connectors - Toggle switch of your choice MORE PICS! The connectors have a clip that you flip up to reveal the contact points You can keep them as one piece if you want to have a couple wired together but make sure you end up haveing the positive and negative leads right! ***FOR WEATHER PROOF ONLY*** Take a knife and cut through the weather coating so you can get to the contacts ***BE CAREFUL NOT TO CUT TO FAR AND CUT THE ACTUAL STRIP*** I did on a couple in this install Now you have positive and negative leads to wire up! Now it's up to you to figure out where you want to put the LEDs and how to run the wires. Just hook them up to the postive and negative on the battery and add a toggle switch on the positive wire. I currently have 2 RF remotes shipping to me to hook up to both of the bikes but they are taking there sweet ass time to get here so I wired up a toggle switch for now.
