Part1
General process of installing custom leds on a v46 topcase from givi, more to come later. I will try to upload another video showing the final installation including the E41 cases as well as the installation of the IQ160TS + relays on the bike.
Extra info:
Each 3" led strip you cut off can run by itself via 9-14v DC. You do not have to worry about LED arrays with this setup as they will always be 3 LEDs in series each time you solder one board to the next, and the total in parallel.
Difficulty level would be medium to medium hard. You don't want this to be the first time you ever soldered and you should know enough about circuits where you don't destroy your bike or shock yourself. You also need a fairly good level of dexterity to make the solder connections.
