Thanks for the input from all.

I got the foot well lights installed today. It went off with out a hitch but just a little chilly in the driveway. OBB the write up was dead on and a big help. Looks like the weather is going to be an issue getting to put the LED bars on. The Avy will fit in the the garage but it's a tight fit and doesn't leave much room work around but if the weather doesn't cooperate I may have to try it. I'm thinking of using the 3M tape to mount them to the rockers to keep from drilling holes and the temp needs to be warmer for the tape.

Waiting on the weather stinks for sure. I have about two days of rewiring to do on mine after I get the second battery installed plus SPl's on Twiggy's truck to do. I have a two car garage but it has the two separate doors instead of one big one and that make's it a pain to wiggle a truck into to work on. That and the bike takes up a lot of room.

Had a nice 70 deg day here in WNC and was able to get the Recon Big Rig Ice LED side light bars on today. I used the 3M tape to mount them to the rocker panels. I wired them to only work with the turn signals and courtesy lights. I'll have to wait until it gets dark enough to take some pics so they will show up better. During the wiring I did find the amber coating on the front turn signal bulbs was starting to blister and come off in side the turn signal housing and was able to replace the bulbs while in there. Hopefully while off this week I'll get to start working on the Renegade light bar for the roof.

Can't wait to see the pix. I'm really interested in how well they'll work with the courtesy lights.

Here's the pix! They don't do justice for seeing them in person. The LEDs are noticeable during the day but really light it up at night. I think it turned out pretty good. Just wish I'd play with the camera enough to take some decent night shots.
First two are with the door cracked open using the courtesy lights.
The last one is with the turn signals.
