Pluses and minuses stop it being great
| There are a couple of things I must point out first: 1- Finding the plug for the light switch is a total pain in the ass; 2- threading the wiring up to the indicators is a total pain in the ass- however neither of these things are ShowChrome's fault. The good? When hooked up the lights seem to work very well in all three functions, and installing the light units themselves is quite straightforward. The bad? They are most definitely NOT plug and play for Australian GL1800's: mine is 2012 and I had to do a bit of rewiring to get the indicators and running lights to work. The terrible? The leads for the fog lights are too short, especially the left one; so much so I had to extend it to reach the factory plug; also, the plugs for the loom from the light units to the indicators is a bitch to try and fit: it looks as though it should be an easy fit, but it took 5 minutes of fiddling and cursing to get it to fit in. Had I known these things beforehand I would probably not have bought them |

Faulty Connectors (Blue) fog lights
| Overall the installation was not too difficult, just take your time running the wires down from the mirror into the front cowl. I discovered that the (Blue connectors) at the fog lights were not making a good connection as the two halves of the connectors were too long when coupling them. I had to trim down the (Blue connectors) which would allow making a secure electrical connection between them. Otherwise, you would have intermittent fog light-running-turn signals). I then used a plastic wire tie from end to end to keep them from separating, as the clip portion was not securing the connection. I did a wire harness wrap-tape around the blue connectors as well for added security of keeping the Blue connectors together because I don't want to deal with working & not working fog-running-turn lights! I was close to splicing the microwires to make the connection, but I will see if my fix works. Show Chrome needs to address this issue. The On-Off Fog Light button really feels of low quality. I may have to try and resource another quality on-off fog light switch. For the money these cost you should not have issues as I encountered with this installation JMHO! |

The Good and the Bad of it
| I won these from Wing Stuff back in 2017 in a contest for most reviews. Now that I retired, I finally had time to put them on the bike. Here's the Good: I have a 2002 Gold Wing and the installation of just the lights themselves was a breeze! Here's the Bad: I have a 2002 Gold Wing. The lights fit fine and if you look at any YouTube video, they all show easy install of the lights. What is interesting is that NO ONE shows what is involved in wiring these lights. If you want just the fog lights as just a fog light replacement for existing or new - piece of cake, but for 2001 to 2005, F6B and Valkyrie you have to try and fish the supplied wire harness up to the mirrors to get the turn signal and day-time running light features. What a chore! I had to remove the center panel, the lower front cowl piece (of course) the inner, upper cowl and the two inside side pieces by the forks, the windshield cover, windshield, and the outer shell of the dash board to fish the wires up through. THEN, you have to cut the connector ends off - throw them away and splice the wires into the mirror wiring harness - all without any directions. So, I had to call Show Chrome for directions on which wires to splice together in the mirror. The directions I was given was wrong. So, re-wire. (Please note that when I read the instructions from the fog light carton, it said I had to order a part #52-765, which I did, which is no longer available, but found a supplier in RI, ordered them, paid $40, and then found out in talking with Show Chrome, I spent $40 for something I cannot use - I have to splice. THEN, I had to purchase the lower cowl with the rectangular fog cut-outs. Go read my review for part number BB52908! NOT GOOD! 2 stars for the fog lights only - once I got them hooked up - work and look great! No other stars due to wiring problems and efforts. I highly do not recommend this product for 2001 to 2005 Gold Wings - not sure what it takes for install on an F6B or Valkyrie |

Easy Install
| Easy plug and play product. Only difficult part was connecting the turn signals. Took some time to run those wires. Other than that the lights are very bright. |

Unwritten issues
| The product is of great value, and the directions are pretty straightforward and easy to understand. The problem I had was feeding the wire from the mirrors down to the light fixture. Took a little head scratching to figure it out. All in all , experience is a great teacher . |

FOR F6B YOU WILL NEED ADAPTERS.
| Tridium LED Fog/Running/Driving light are nice and good quality. If using on F6B it is not plug and play. You will need adapter that Wingstuff sells to make it true plug and play. "Adapter harness F6B1A" |

Wrong type of harness for indicators
| Love the look of these lights on my 2012 Goldwing. One BIG problem. The two harnesses that come with lights that connect from OEM indicator harness to lights wont fit my bike. They bare no resemblance to the OEM connectors under my indicators. This may be because I am in Australia and I'm going to assume that there may be a difference. Why, I have no idea. |

Beware F6B Owners
| Install was pretty smooth to begin with. Show Chrome did a YouTube video with a guy that makes it pretty self-explanatory how to install this thing just search it up on youtube. My problem comes with the fact that I can't find anywhere on the product description that you have to cut and solder your turn signal wires on an F6B... All other models are plug and Play but on the F6B you actually have to cut the connectors on the mirrors and solder them in place. I really wish there was some kind of warning about this on the purchase page. |

Tridium led fog/running/driving kit
| I put this kit on along with the lower cowl and everything worked EXCEPT the left amber turn signal, the running lights cancel out but the amber left turn signal is not working. I called wing stuff and they wanted me to disassemble the ENTIRE kit box it back up and send it back to be inspected and they would send another. TOO MUCH work for all of that. So I am very disappointed with the return process on this. |

Tridium led fog lights
| Bought these awhile back, but just Installed them yesterday. Install was fairly simple, except for running the wire down the right side mirror. Guess that is way the video did only the left side and said do the right one just like it. They seem to work fine. I will test them out on my 650 mile ride friday. |
