ZX14 smoke tail light.
Hey Guys.
I'm looking for a smoke tail light for my bike. I've already got the smoke indicators.
Every tail light I've seen has the turn signals integrated. I don't want that, I just want a smoke tail light with a full set of red led's.
Can anyone point me in the right direction

Try Clear Alternatives they list a oem smoke replacement taillight. Hotbodies also list one,but I would be very afraid of their stuff.

I have tried several, the $40.00 smoked tail lights on Ebay leak and need to be resealed before you install. Buy the spray and clear and smoke the stock tail light to match. Use
Very light coats. OEM tail lights are made better......................... You don't have to wire up the turn signals on the intergrated .
I have seen the smoked tail lights go from $40.00 to $95.00 each on Ebay. If you buy a aftermarket add some sealer around the lens and do not use Car Wash near tail light. And
some of them use a different bulb and different socket you have to cut and splice.

I've never tried the spray version, but I might have a go at it. I've heard of a translucent spray called "Dark nights" over here in Aus.
What spray works the best? And do you just clear over it afterwards?
Cheers.

The smoked tail light that I purchased from Clear Alternatives was intergrated but only if you wired the turn signals, other wise it was just the one factory plug and it would function like the factory light.

Hey Fellas
Im installing a clear alternatives tailight on my 14R and want to make sure I am hooking up the signal part correctly. Its says to splice the turn signal wire with the positive wire on the signal lamp on the bike and my choices are black and yellow which I think is the negative and green which I think is the positive can anyone confirm this to be correct?
Thanks
