[QUOTE="garyahouse, post: 950594, member: 20946"] I just installed a set of LED flashing brake lights on my 05 FJR last weekend. Not sure if they're what you have, or if the wires are the same color, but here's what I can tell you. Red wire (hyperlight): brake light wire. On my FJR this is the yellow wire coming out of the tail light. Connect these two together, it doesn't matter if you use the left or the right, both are yellow on the FJR, and they're on the same circuit. Black wire (hyperlight): ground source. You can tap into the ground coming off the tail light or a suitable screw... I used the screw that is right next to the key actuated clamping mechanism that holds the seat down. Grey wire (hyperlight): 12v. power source. I hooked this to the wire that powers the running light. Each brake light has 3 wires, brake, running, and ground. These are the wires I'm referring to. Brake is yellow, I forget the color of the running light wire. Looking at the tail lights, there are three wires coming out of each. As you know, each bulb has two contacts, and the shell of the bulb is the ground. The socket into which it fits is the ground as well. The outer shell is the ground, and you can see which wire connects to this outer shell buy just looking at it from under the seat. This is the ground. Hope that helps... if indeed your wires for the hyper lights are the same color as mine. Gary darksider #44 [/QUOTE]
