Underglow

[stancejontland]

Anyone know of any scooter specific led underglow kits? Or could I just use a motorcycle one? Also any good links to ones shipped from US would be cool. I have a baccio vx50 it's bigger than most scoots so idk if a smaller set would work or one for a motor cycle. Thanks. Also looking for yellow lights. And are they easy to install without screwing holes in my body.

eclark5483 had some installed on his daughter's scoot. There are pics in his thread about it. Might have more info on them or maybe he can tell you where to find them.

I used this kit on my daughter's scooter:

You can see what it looks like here:

Check your local laws. In my state, the only colors you can use while riding are Yellow and Amber, and lights must be mounted so their direct light is not visible, only the glow.

Anyone know how these work?? Do they all have to be connected to each other??

[stancejontland]

Didn't see you had the same kit lol so your the guy to talk to haha. Did you use all the lights or just some of them? And how can you connect all of those little things to each other? I see they connect but what if I don't want 20 sets on my scoot. Do you have pictures of where and how they were mounted? On driving home from vacation and can't look at the moment.

You probably want to use them all. Some were routed up front under the tire, they space about 6 inches apart. Sorry, no pics of the install, but I can tell you the kit uses 3M adhesive which is pretty strong. Although I would recommend strapping them down with tie straps. The kit also comes with a couple extenders which come in handy. I had the one's on my kids professionally done, but I can tell you, if you are gonna do it, then take off all the plastics and mount them to the frame. Like I said before, my state says they must not show direct light, mainly because that would be too distracting. If you mount them onto the frame, then the direct light should not be visible once the plastics are back on.

You figure, 10 sets of lights means 4 on each side and 2 up front. Going with less lights would probably look kind of weak. The kit comes with a remote which is cool, but even still, you might wanna install an off/on toggle switch so that it doesn't drain the battery when in off/standby mode.

My plastics would cover any light that could get out. Plus they are a pain n a half to remove. Would rather hide them in the wheel wells. I'm from pa and the laws have changed. As long as its in the "engine compartment" its fine. Even if your driving around. But I have seen leds all over bikes in my town and they never get bothered. And lights them selfs are visible. (in some cases I've seen them in the open)

Also does that kit you got have a toggle switch?? I don't know where to find a toggle switch since all the radio shacks have gone under.

[eclark5483]

No, does not include a toggle. You can find one of those on Amazon as well. Tons of different kinds and different sizes to choose from.

Walmart sells them, as do auto parts stores. toggle switches that is
