does UFO enduro fender have a plate light?

Post by breakdirt916 »

My bike doesn't have the light, and it looks cheaper and easier to buy the whole thing with a brakelight rather than modify a socket in the stock taillight

I can't get a good look in the picture - does the UFO fender have a license plate light too?

I bought one for my 220 and it has a dual filament bulb and had 3 wires coming out of it. I've just used 2 of the wires and taped off the other one. Does that help?

is it the plate light you want or the brake light ?

if all you are concerned about is the brake light then you can just order an 1157 socket off ebay and a hydraulic brake light switch and modify the stock unit

$6 dollars in parts and maybe 30 minutes of work and your good to go

to clarify - I'm curious if it has a plate light

ie. is the bottom of the red lens clear, so that it will illuminate a license plate?

I also considered the 1157 socket swap...but my bike doesn't even have the red taillight on there at all...it's just the fender.

no light on the fender at all ?

shoot me a picture, I might have a stock fender I would consider trading for it
(id have to check to see if the lens is red or not)

or you can buy an LED tail/brake/plate light that mount under the fender off ebay for 12 bucks and wire that in
that's what I have on my plated bike and it looks pretty good...I think

what 2 wires did you use as the colors dont match my stock wireing

My friend used the brown as ground and one of the whites (wrapped in yellow???) For the hot.
