Dishonest Guy. Rip-off
I bought the lights from this guy to keep my mirrors off.
The lights came and they looked like this:
I talked to him about it and he said they are mint and they are better than stock:
Just so you know how mint lights look like:
So, OK, big deal. They are hidden anyway.
I proceed and remove my headlights and install them. I get to the connectors and lo and behold, they are both female:
So, again, OK, I will splice them onto the wires. Checked with him on the polarities, which coincided with what I found out when I traced the wires, green LED are positive.
The lights do not work.
So now I have POS workmanship LED headlights and LED blinkers that are dead, and this guy tells me that they are as advertised and I am being hopeless and I am stupid for messing up the wiring.
Another thing that I noticed when I had the lights was the temp probe was broken and the parts of the intake are broken also.
So clearly these are not clean take-offs. He claims that he tested them. All mirrors I saw on EBay have male connectors. I do not know why these came with female.

Paypal complaint on the way.

This headlight has LED turn signals mounted on the inside. The headlight was opened and LED's were placed inside. The wiring has the stock connectors. The mod is handy for a replacement signals location for bikes without mirrors. Check out the video. www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9M7o6IM40o
