simple. LEDs mean light emitting diodes and they can only operate if its in the right polarity. connect up all the positive side of the LED and tap it to a 12 volt source.

 

the negative wire from the LED, connect them up, and secure it to any of the screws that are connected to bare metal or any part of the frame. or you can run the wire back to the negative terminal of the battery.

 

you might want to install a switch in series with the 12 volt source and the positive wire of the LED. sorry, i'm explaining based on what i did on my bike before. so DIYing. its fun, but can be really tricky sometimes.

 

one advice, just try not to cut into the main bike wiring systems. for your 12 volt source, find the fuse box and tap it from the ignition fuse connection.

Something like my signature?

raw LEDs working voltage is about 3+ volatge. You'll need to get the correct resistor for the set up. Or u set 3 Leds in series den connect the sets in //.... If you dun want to DIY, just buy those LED strips off the shelf....

eh... i am an electrical newbie.... is there any website where there are diagrams to show how to connect those components together.... i.e. series diagram, // diagram... etc...

wat color u looking for??? easiest way is buy those ready made cube that has 3x LEDs on it.. sim lim got sell.. go to the basement shop... near the stairsway..

 

jus link up the wires.. tap to ur power supply.. add a switch and then tap to ur horn(nt sure can wrk anot) or wat to get the power source..? easiest is tap to ur fuse loh.. cos u dun 1 ur switch to be meddle wif when ur bike is off.. so it will wrk onli when u on ur bike

Guys, to all those who have undertray lights.

 

LTA seems to be on to all those who install it. A couple of forumers had already recieved letters from LTA to remove the lights.

 

Proceed with caution.....

Its not cheap to get stopped...

 

Although i only on mine when i go NSHW...
