Default A $55 lightbar project...

So I decided I wanted a classic lightbar look on my Vulcan...so I spent $50 on Ebay for 2 add-on 4.5 inch 35 watt lights..and bought a $5 autoparts store relay. I traded a friend some lasagne for a couple of angle brackets...and then reassembled it all. If anyone is really interested I have more photos and could explain any details. Iused the 'aux' 10a fused connectors that already existed on my bike ...and wired a relay to turn the lights on whenever the low beams are on. If I want them off, I flip up to high beams.

here is 'before' with the windshield already off


the bracket


lights on the brackets


the final result ! ( ok ok I left out the electrical part...)
