Orange to Red brake light

Those at the Antler's Ride most likely noticed that the brake light on Liz' trunk was more Orange than Red. Well today I took it off the trunk, opened it up to find out for sure what was inside. It had 3 small lights with reflectors shinging through the faded red lense. So I went through my extra stuff ( junk ) and found two red LED light strips and proceeded to try to install them inside the light. After some time I made a new mounting bracket that I could attach the LED strips to and would fit into the housing. So now Liz has 2 twelve bulb LED light strips inside her 9 1/2 inch brake light on her trunk. IT IS RED!

Hey, Liz has her own mechanic. Cool.

I installed the Kury triple light on the back of my Nomad. My last wreck involved a car running over the back of me. I figure more bright lights might come in handy.

Liz doesn't do bad herself. She can change her own oil, filter and rear end grease, check the air in her tires and she helps me change tires on the bikes as needed. She also made our highway bar chaps, cut down the sheep skin she bought to fit our seats and makes other things like our fleece neck covers. She also has her own tools for inside the house such as hammer, screw drivers, drill, etc. I never have to hang curtains, blinds or drapes and she has helped me roof the house ( as long as she didn't have to work the edge ) and do plumbing work, remodel the house, hang sheet rock and she does all the taping, mudding and sanding. She just keeps me around to do the electrical work mow the lawn, shovel snow, reach things on the top shelves, plan and lead rides, and make her laugh.
