way different than an original. definitely not plug and play. not fitted to rear fender. you have to have the rubber flap to mount this to or make one out of a piece of rubber. had to drill a hole in my powdercoated fender. connections live under the fender so you need to take your rear wheel off to trouble shoot. it does work tho.

Nice item, good quality and everything. The molding is nice, the bulb holder is great and the wires are long enough for my Puch Maxi (with soldering). However, I received one with a cracked licence plate glass, which turned out to be a completely shot license plate glass upon disassembling. I had informed the Kingdom of Treatland of the issue and they were very keen on correcting that, props to them then! But still, it's a mess to assemble and put the pieces together every time, so get a good one!
As mentioned, you will have to drill a hole in order to have it fit, as it only comes with one hole from the factory. Easy and clean to do, don't let that discourage you.

honestly, this is pretty much the same light as stock with a few differences:
* You must take off the bulb holder and use a 1/4" drill bit to drill the second hole, really simple. * The innards are a little different and the connectors much smaller, so I snipped the connectors off and added my own larger male ends to plug into the stock connectors * You will want to run the black wire to ground
Otherwise it is really a decent light and even fits on the rubber piece that fits behind your stock light. Pretty cool.
Took me about 20min to install, pretty simple.

Got this to replace the broken one on my Pinto that I'm making pretty. At first I was bummed thinking it wasn't a match. This was because it only comes with one screw. After comparing the OEM to this one I realized you just need to take the bulb holder off and drill your own hole and then add your own screw. Huzzah! Now it has two screws and it fits perfectly into that rubber mount piece! Yeah!

bought one of these a while ago, never had a use for it, then i decided to put it on my maxi. What i did was cut the plastic arm like mounting area off with a hack saw and then drilled holes in the bottom to mount it to a bracket which was bolted to the shock bolt. Being a canadian maxi (bombadier) it had no brake light only running, so now from the lisence plate light i have light shining on my spokes, kinda like neon!
