Front turn signal wires question

Got some flush mounts, but not sure what wires are which on the stock turnsignals.

R side has green, light blue, and light blue/white stripe.
L side has green, orange, and orange/white stripe.

pretty sure striped wires are the grounds, but is green running light, or blinker?

EngineNoO9 is an unknown quantity at this point
green is ground so use that and if the flush mounts are 2 wire you want to use the one with the stripe for the other wire.

no, the flush mounts are three wire, to retain the running lights.


incidentally, the flush mounts use black/white stripe = ground, solid black = running lights, solid red = blinker light, thats why I assumed the stock wires followed suit and used the white striped wire for the ground

Cool. Thanks. After looking at that diagram for 20 minutes and scratching my head, I think I figured it out. Now I gotta sac up and *sniff* drill my fairings!!

Why do you have to drill in to the fairing? My Flush mounts fit in to the stock holes, wiring and all.

Damn it! I got the LP "flush mount I" carbon/clear. Thought there was no drilling involved, plus I have a bunch of other CF stuff on the bike.. Now that I look, I see that the "flush mount IV" is a no drill, and ALMOST a true flush mount...
