Nice.

Where did you run the power from and how did you get a wrench on those tech screws?

Allan, the tech screws are easy. the plate has a very slight press-fit into the housing. plus i am going to use a small amount of silicon to keep it in place.
as for the wiring, i am still working on that plan. i am not sure i want daytime driving lights, flash-to-pass lights or regular ol' lights.
there is a small hole just below the turn/running light for the wires to pass through. any thoughts on how to wire flash/pass lights?

best to you

Martin Baker had a little assembly he fabbed up, but I don't know if he ever made any number of them. I'll ask him Sunday

Martin, do you have any pics of the details of your wiring? I assume the white light stays on, and the upper orange is a directional signal?

He made mine! They are so cool... They look like new when he gets done. Not just wired Euro, just like new.

i don't want these lights for constant on....rather flash-to-pass only. so they should only be on momentarily(thus heat shouldn't be an issue) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif) . i need to figure out how to wire to the turn stalk to accomplish this feat!

I bought a set of Martins lights about 2 yrs ago. They are the best out there, I wasn't sure if he was still making these, glad to see he is. Well done Martin (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

WOW, Thanks for all the positive feedback, that means allot to me. The small 6 watt bulb is the park light, and the other is the signal/hazard.

Martin's lights look really nice and *correct*. Anyone have a picture of how the camp914 lights are done?

Martin,

I tried to find a link to your old web site, no luck. Are you still taking orders for the Euro lights? You can PM me the details if you wish, or just post the info here for other members to share.

Thanks.
