Anybody put smaller taillights in the stock loaction?

I like the look of everything except for the big turn signals. Any pics would be great, I'm worried about having too big gaps if I put them on, so I want to see what they look like. It's just the turn signals so I don't really need a fender eliminator if smaller lights work well. Another reason I don't want an eliminator kit is that they give you trouble for integrated tail lights here in Mass. The local shop will pass any pipes, but no integrated tail lights, he says they get more trouble for those.

Keep stock lighting for inspections.
Once a year put them on, then take them off , lol.

Ive got two 1 inch diameter LED tail lights in place of the stock tail light.
Technically not legal, but they are way way brighter than stock, and when the brakes are on, they are like laser beams they are so bright. No problems with inspection ( or my shops I go to are short on stupid ***** for employees ) and Im not going to get pulled over for anything wrong with them obviously.
So glad I live in Texas, the communists that control other states get chased off or killed around here.

Go someplace else, I've passed in MA for about 8 years with an integrated tail, I did get turned away from one shop, then found a Harley shop about 100 yds further down the road, been going there ever since. My setup is a little better now, but still no separate blinkers. The first time I went there the owner was really complimenting the bike, mostly the sound (most people expect to hear an I4 when they see them) I've actually seen him out a couple of times and he always gives a big wave.
