Any Plug and Play solution  to use the rear turn signals for marker lights or taillights ?

Update :   EC (Electrical Connection) has a LED Kit  $49.95 or $60 SHipped.

Turns Rear Turn Signals into Marker , Brake and Turn Signal...THis is what I am after
but I hate their website never details stating plug and play or etc .

Kinda Pricey

I installed the kit from electrical solutions.  More than plug & play, about two hour installation.  $50.00 for the led kit.

I have a Kuryakyn Run/Turn/Brake module installed, it connects into the wiring behind the right side cover. I found an old Honda wiring harness and soldered the connectors onto the Kury Module so it is just a plug in, it also makes it easy to remove.

Ditto on the Kuryakyn.

I installed http://www.kuryakyn.com/index.cfm/go/Home.ProductDetail/catID/16/scID/39/IMID/734 on Joanne's XVS650. But it looks like a Valk would require this http://www.kuryakyn.com/index.cfm/go/Home.ProductDetail/catID/16/scID/39/IMID/732. Call them to be sure they're always very helpful.

Also, if it doesn't function (flash) properly with the single included load equalizer you'll need a second one http://www.kuryakyn.com/index.cfm/go/Home.ProductDetail/catID/16/scID/114/IMID/718

For street leagalities you'll need to either replace your amber lenses with red and/or use a red bulb with clear lenses. Personnaly, colored bulbs with clear lenses are less visable then clear bulbs with colored lenses.

Be sure if your lenses are the older 2 screw units or a single screw.

http://www.customdynamics.com/motorcycle_led_bulbs.htm#Incandescent_Bulbs Go to the top of the page.
I had the electrical connections kit and it was good for the time they were the only ones that made anything led and it was kinda plug and play but the link above are basically the same as the electrical connections except their brighter bigger and just look better. They have to have the sides shaved a bit because they are made on a flat piece of mica. Then you glue them into the lens. You can call them and have them made with a regular bulb base but you will still have to wire in the running lights and the brake lights not hard to do because you can run the wires right to the tail light. This does have to be done with the electrical connection lights too. I have clear lens also because the leds are colored and shine through better with a clear lens.

Almost forgot may need to add a load because the leds I think don't consume enough juice to keep the signals flashing. I have the Kisan signal minder and it works perfectly with leds so no load is required.

They have gotten hard to find.
If you can't find any, I'm 98% sure Kury's Deep Dish Turn Bezel [single screw mount only] #2269 will fit. You can call Kuryakyn Tech help to confirm. If they fit the early shadow line they'll fit the Valk.
