GIVI knock-off mod

[aviationfred]

I have been looking for the smoke lenses for my GIVI knock off top box. For those that don't know , RPM is a GIVI distributor and was able to order me a set of lenses. I did get the center brake light lens, but a little modification needs to be done before I can mount it. rpmracing.ca.com

The results are exactly what I was looking for.


This with the original red lenses.

Nice work Fred.  I've got the same top box and was planning to install a brake light / running light on the center lens this winter.  What light set up did you use? Home made wire harness or something off the shelf??

I used LED light strips that I found on eBay and made my own wire harness to tie everything together. Simple spade connectors are used for a disconnect.

I like the connector that Alan used in his post. I may install a 3 pin weather proof connector over the winter.

The same seller has 3-pin connectors as well.

They are pretty inexpensive.
