Good morning all...

I just bought a Givi trunk and need to get a brake light/LED setup for it. I've been looking for a good setup, there are a few out there. Admore has a kit made for that trunk, but it's $150...it seems a bit high...

I'm looking for opinions of those who may have installed an aftermarket setup. I need to find LED strips also. I was surprised to find that these trunks are built with red or clear lenses, but no bulbs installed.

Thoughts?

Is the internet broken or something?

91 views and no opinions? First time I think I've seen that.....

Givi makes a lot of trunks.  I have owned two of them.
Let me know the model and I might know something.

Lol...It's good to know I can always count on you for saucy replies.....in a good way, of course.

Yes, I've seen the Givi light kits, but the ones I've seen are brake only. I'd like to have the turn signal mod, too.

I got the V56 trunk... https://www.giviusa.com/givi-products/cases/monokey-cases/v56nn-56-liter-top-case-maxia-4-detail

Revzilla offers the Admore kit, but like I said the price is a bit steep. i was hoping to find something a little more reasonable, but if there's none to be found.... https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/admore-led-kit-for-givi-v56-topcase

just my personal opinion.  You would probably invest more in fabricating something that might or might not work, versus spending the money on a setup that is exactly made for the case.
I do know the givi light kits are very well made.
Sorry can't be any more help than that.

You're probably right...I don't have a lot of time available, either....

Thanks.

I would buy their brake lights, then add yellow turn signals under the brake lights.  You could get something like these, but you might have trouble with the curve:



Or get some flexible LED strip lights and do something like this.  Excuse the quick photo editing job.
