Clear alternative tail light install ???s

Has anyone here replaced the stock tail light with one from clear alternatives with the integrated turn signals? I just picked one up and was a little confused as to the installation.

Out of the back of the new light there are 5 wires: 3 of which have a plug attached for the tail/ stop light and 2 yellow wires for the signals. One of the yellow wires is solid and the other has a black stripe (positive and negative?) My question is how do I hook up the turn signals to the new unit? Which wires get attached to what? I've got some free time tomorrow and would love to put this on and still get some riding in!

Thanks for the link! It took a while to reply but I finally got around to installing the new taillight a few days ago and I must say its looks a whole lot better and brighter than the original. It was really quick and easy to install. I took the time to cut the original connectors off the turn signals and solder it to the free yellow wires on the light just to make it a nice and clean. I also got rid of that bulky fender and moved the plate under the light!


Now heres the next question: for those who removed their rear fender without an aftermarket undertail what did you do with the gaps created when removing the large metal arm that stuck out from the tail? Im not sure if its the greatest idea keeping these holes exposed...





Sorry the pictures are so big...
