Posted September 17, 20168 yr Hey, I have got a LED number plate light with my tail tidy, however this LED has got bullet connectors, my bike has got the following kind of connectors. I want to redo the LED light connector as to avoid messing with the stock bike electronics, how would I find out the exact connector which is used for the number plate light, and also the indicators as they are different sizes.Â
September 17, 20168 yr Author Hey, here are photos of the connectors, any idea what the model name is so I can purchase some more?
September 18, 20168 yr It's very rare to find an exact copy of the bike electric connectors, in fact as "rare as rocking horse shit" is the phrase I would use, I would use the stuff in the kit you bought after all they went to the trouble of supplying them so they must work!
September 18, 20168 yr Author There is nothing in the hit to use though, it's just a positive and negative bullet connector. I have ended up snipping them off and attaching to very small spade connectors, then I have put shrink wrap around one incase they get knocked and touch and just put them inside the block connector. Will do for now. Â In the future would you just recommend to attach a widley use connect to both what im adding and the original
September 18, 20168 yr I think I know where youre at. To fit the new white connectors, you have to remove the black ones from the bike. Sometimes the spades in the black connecotrs can be got out by using a very small flat blade driver to lift the tang on the spades, then pull the spades out. And sometines you have to do waht I did and very carefully cut/snip away at the black plugs until you have fully exposed the spades on both halves. De-solder the spades from both halves of the loom, re-solder on your new spades. push the new spades into the new blocks. Job done
