In the process of renovating an Injun Vijai, and thinking of converting an alloy rear frame grill to have LEDs connected to the rear brake light, hence a Hi level rear brake light. Anyone done anything like this? Gonna have to rectify the AC to DC for the LEDs, but may install a battery for the horn and rear brake light, so I have better main lights.

Hi Steve, remember your brake light under the seat. (Don't think you posted the link correctly) Thinking of mounting a PCB board with LEDs behind the slotted alloy grill ;)

yea photobucket is s**t at the mo :?
yes it is under the seat reason is i had a grill type one but couldnt get the angle of light to shine upwards very well and it was pretty dull as well this one was bright :lol: altho i was running a modified VESPA T5 stator which was giving out over 90w i got a shock off it one day when i was messing around, my arm was numb for over a day :(

theres also a second bar of 10 led,s in the main light housing you can make them out above the normal light these were about £2 a think from a car parts shop and i cut a groove in the light and siliconed them on there

Nice, I like it. Great safety idea too. Now get one mounted on you helmet and you'll be set. Haven't seen this done before(or can't remember) but I did see a P2 with a lazor light that came throught the horn grill.
That's not going anywhere...
