Jaxon hooked me up with some Squadrons and they are really nice lights. Incredibly well built and VERY bright. I saw another post on here regarding the use of the stainless brackets that come with the lights so I modded accordingly and got them installed. This is the thread that shows how to mod the brackets: http://www.yamahasupertenere.com/index.php?topic=4651.0 Perfecto.
I am running them independent of the stock lighting harness. I tapped into the key-on positive for the heated grips to activate the relay and then routed + and - to the battery for main power. For now I am using the switch from Baja Designs, but will soon hook up Jaxon's custom bar switch.
Also, until I see how much heat they generate when used for long periods I put some heat-reflective tape between the light housing and the bottom of the headlight plastics so I don't melt anything. It seems like they don't make too much heat, but just wanted to be cautious.
The Sun is jealous of my light-emitting capability.
