DRL’s saves lives. The price of your recommendation saves marriages. 😂😂👍👍

[@HardPackedADV]

That's the best comment.

[@benb2058]

Wow thinking of adding to my lighting great tip on how to access built-in lighting controls I looked up those sumi plugs as soon as I saw that thanks for the great tips!!

[@HardPackedADV]

Glad I could help!

[@jonasz943]

Lights from stedi uk arrived today. All installed following your 2 videos. Great job. Thanks and greetings from Scotland

[@HardPackedADV]

Excellent, I'd love to see a photo of your bike.

[@nickabrahall1412]

Great night pics I’m getting some 👌

[@HardPackedADV]

Thanks, if you are looking to use them as spot lights maybe go the 20 watt lights. But the 10's are pretty decent.

[@davidcauchi2837]

Hello Martin, Thanks its an informative video on the lights and installation; In a recent video you installed a Pelican Case as a Top Box.... I thought it was a great idea....so I have installed a pelican case from Bunnings on to my Triumph Street Scrambler 900....works well....David....Adelaide....Street Scrambler 900......

[@HardPackedADV]

Hi mate, excellent. I have had them on a few bikes. Better than a tank bag.

[@darrynellis2709]

Great vid 👍

[@HardPackedADV]

Thank you, very much appreciated.

[@chrissmedley3418]

Could you do a part 2 vid to this one showing how to access your spot lights via the buttons and tft screen

[@HardPackedADV]

That's a great idea, thanks.

[@steve60855]

Done this on a CB500x,but what gets me is the dealers don’t tell you that the bike has auxiliary sockets for accessories and where they’re located.

[@HardPackedADV]

es true, probably because that they want to install them.

[@lisabeach2371]

Hi Martin, fanatic video and gave me inspiration after removing the same set of Stedi’s to go onto my new Hornet 750. Do you happen to know if the same harness for the Sumitomo plug is the same for the hornet as the TransAlp please? Thanks again, Lisa

[@HardPackedADV]

Hi Lisa, thank you for your comment. Sorry I do not know if they are the same. But please let me know how you get on with it.

[@motorcycleridepov8230]

Hi, nice vid. The link you gave for the Spot light bracket is now dead & I bought another though it was the wrong size. Do you have the exact name for the bracket? Thanks

[@andreaborg4164]

Nice setup I will do mine as yours :). The two Sumitomo plugs are they male or female, please? Did you have any issues from the installation onwards with switching since it is connected directly to the Honda harness? Thanks Andrea

[@HardPackedADV]

This is the connector that I purchased, it has both. I think that it was a male connector. www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002838169228.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.17.21ef1802FIT470

Hola ala mía no llega corriente a las conexiones laterales que tengo que acer .el botón fn ya lo e conectado pero nada aver si me puedes ayudar gracias

[@heithcarr]

Hi Martin, thanks for the info in your video. We have the right plugs for our lights, but there appears to be no power to them. How do you get power to the plug? Cheers TIA

[@HardPackedADV]

Have you used the Check Short Service Connector to enable the system recognise the lights?

[@slugslugster9338]

Just about to pull the trigger on these lights are yours still going well with no issues? (Same bike)

[@HardPackedADV]

@@slugslugster9338 yes going well, no issues at all.

[@waynecamarano7715]

[@AndyBondo]

Hi mate. Iam about to do the mod but can you please tell me , the plugs I need to buy are male are female sumimoto .cheers in advance . Maybe send an exact link

[@patkennedy1]

I've been considering a pair of lights like these. Not just to be seen, but I don't reckon the stock Tansalp headlight is all that bright, as shown in your night demonstration. Not that I ride at night much, but just for when I do. How much did you spend on the conversion?

[@HardPackedADV]

Around $130 AUD in total. Spot lights $48 each, Plug $13.41, Bracket $18.58

[@easyfromtnbtw3555]

That’s the only thing I don’t like about my Transalp is the low beam on the the headlight kinda sucks I’ve been trying to figure out a way to mount a set without crash bars

[@HardPackedADV]

You could easily adapt the light to mount to the plastic or off the side of the forks.

[@easyfromtnbtw3555]

Yeah I was thinking about using the pinch bolts with L brackets

[@Jordyenbono]

Hi there, great video!!! So i need to order 2 of these sumitomo connectors from aliexpress? Because of adding 2 fog lights. So i have to do this step on both sides of the bike am i right? Thank you for helping!

[@karlyallen3607]

Hi, did you have to set the lights up to be recogised by the bike by using the short service connector at all? If so, what was the procedure? Also is it the female plugs you need? Thanks.

[@HardPackedADV]

Yes use the the Short Service Connector, and this Sumitomo plug: 2 Pin Sumitomo plug - www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002838169228.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.17.21ef1802FIT470

[@marvinaeronauts]

Hi Martin - would this approach work with the SW Motech Evo high beams? Should I use the same sumitomo adapter ?

[@HardPackedADV]

It should work and yes you would need the same sumitomo plug.

[@westeagle00]

Hello -I ordered the Stedi lights for my Transalp XL750 and installed them. They look great! But when it came time to do the electrical connections, there was only ONE connector under the flexible rubber "condom". The Sumitomo plug was not there -only the one with the green dots. Any idea where I can find the correct one? Right now I have the lights on the bike, but not plugged in. I purchased the bike in Canada this past February. Any clues where they might have hidden the stock aux lighting connectors would be most helpful. Cheers!

[@HardPackedADV]

Did you happen to look at the other side of the bike to see if there are plugs there?

[@westeagle00]

@@HardPackedADV Yes I checked the other side as well -to no avail. I just saw a posting saying that those connectors are not included on the North American Transalps. Not sure what to do next. Need to find a harnes like the one Honda uses for their optional Honda aux lights I suppose. Not sure how available it would be.

[@ADV_explorersgr]

👌👌👌👍

[@AndyBondo]

Gday mate. I got some stedi c4 s. Do you reckon i could hook them up the same way as you did no issues. Just asking because they are bigger powered lamps. And i Brought them eith mr from Australia .Cheers . Got same bike in france.

[@HardPackedADV]

I can't see a problem with that.

[@marvinaeronauts]

Andy - did you manage to get the steel c4’s working using this method? I also have more powerful sw motech evo high beams and wanting to use factory electronics if possible

[@brianmac3590]

does it matter how you wire up the connector ?

[@HardPackedADV]

It will depend on the LED's that you are connecting. The Stedi brand can go either way. Best to check with your lights manual.

[@YannisPapaioannou]

Hi there, If I want to connect the Givi S322 in a similar way, the only parts I probably need are the sumitomo plugs is that correct? Thanks a lot.

[@HardPackedADV]

Yes I believe that that is correct, or use a small wire to join the two plug ports. If the engine light remains on, ride the bike for about an hour with turning the bike on and off a few times and sometimes the "check engine" light will turn off.

[@YannisPapaioannou]

Is this because of the Givi lights specifically or you had similar issues with the engine light? Thanks

[@HardPackedADV]

Not specific to the Givi lights.

[@theonlyatg]

Hi Martin, thanks for the video. I think I've done everything you did but unfortunately while it lets me select fog lights the on/off blue bar on the dash just flashes and the lights don't come on. Any suggestions?

[@HardPackedADV]

Did you use the Check Short jump plug or similar?

[@theonlyatg]

@@HardPackedADV Yes I was able to set the fog lights to on in the service menu so the option to switch them on and the blue bar shows but if I highlight the on nothing happens. Maybe I'm stupid, are the led lights polarity sensitive?

[@HardPackedADV]

Most LED lights are polarity sensitive ie Positive to positive. The Stedi lights that I fitted are wired to match the colours so I am assuming that they polarity sensitive.

[@theonlyatg]

@@HardPackedADV Yep, you were right. I had the polarity the wrong way round, all working perfectly now, thanks for your help!
