Wish I could say this was my idea but its not. This beautiful job was done by Kevin (3spirit) and I liked it so much I got a replica LED version of the same tail light. I was going to mount it normally but discovered that it requires a recess or cut in the guard. So if I'm going to cut I may as well do the job properly and french it in like Kevin. So if you have a spare rear guard I'm looking for one (see my ad in the classifieds).
