So every time I line someone up to test the Socal, Pathfinder, or any foglight/turn signal combo it never happens! Well this time I'm not buying the all the blame!

Steelwheeler wants me to install his lights and to test the admore control harness. He has a harness already, and I have a spare. I will do this! He has even offered money (although I have no idea how much my services are worth) to get it done, BUT I JUST WANT TO SEE THIS THING WORK!

So I'm just saying, if this one falls through, I am gonna lose my mind. I know I can add regular additional turn signal and brake LEDs to our bikes, I just NEED TO KNOW IF I CAN DO IT WITH THE FOGLIGHT #$%@!!!

*Breathe*

Okay I'm good. Seriously though, I'm in Florida. I can't be the only one that wants to add bling to the 1800. If this one doesn't happen I'm giving up until I finally purchase a set myself.
I'm also calling my additional radiator cowling turn signals a SUPER success. They survived an entire Florida Panhandle Summer with no issues what so ever. I'm surprised this isn't a common thing on a regular Goldwing or F6B. The effect is quite striking and noticeable at night.

My problem is I keep needing things for the 1500 and 1800 that put it back.  I will need lights on this thing one day.  And now last minute stuff for a trip.

I like your radiator lights, but I was skeptical.  Now, I think I will get myself some, but I am not sure what colour.  Were they specific leds that you got?

The accent lights are Opt7 brand. The turn signal LEDS are dimmable Amber's from superbrightleds.

Kidd, check out one of my old threads near the end. The pictures will let you know what you want to know. Keep in mind that I removedon't the bottom short LED strand on both sides for a more uniform look. Slight variations between left and right cowling covers prevent an even light dispersal at the bottom.

I have no other idea how to explain this any different than I've already tried to, so here is a video I took when I was testing the TURN signals and the ACCENT lighting. 2 separate styles/sets of lights....

Kool , don't remember seeing that video  . Good job .

I do NOT  ride at night , what I am wanting are day time lights like these
https://www.superbrightleds.com/moreinfo/truck-round-lamps/round-led-truck-trailer-lights-4-led-braketurntail-lights-w-61-leds-3-pin-connector/554/

to be mounted on top of rad pod

However , I remember  https://www.superbrightleds.com/  having smaller cluster led   in the 2.5 inch wide  , can not find them now

I had my bike painted white for visibility   reasons  , now adding leds for even more

This is the company and light I was thinking of mounting facing rearward  to be used as a brake/turn signal light .

Perhaps  attach to the license plate  extending out to the side , maybe use several
