Hey guys, I'm looking to replace my stock license plate bulb with an LED. I have all the stock rear fender parts and light.
Is it an 1156 or 1157?
Thanks!!!

FYI Ordered an LED 1156 from V-Led's. Works awesome.

HA!!! I think nobody wanted to answer me since the stock rear fender seems to be the first piece yanked off the 14!!
Here's the link to the bulb I chose for the mod, in case I'm not alone with keeping the rear fender lol

I had the rear fender for two years. Went without a tag light last summer. Got a nice tiny LED that fits right in the stock hole of the fender which is perefectly positioned for the license plate which is attached to the other 2 stock holes for the fender and I have the LED hooked up to the stock tag light power source. -----Just like Kawi planned it that way.

Nice Rook!! Well, I will probably remove it at some point, because it gets on my nerves when I go to use my rear stand but for now it's ok. I think I need more reflectors though LOL

I have never heard of anyone getting a ticket for non-reflectorhood but you have that covered with the stock. The rear fender looks pretty good on the 14 , I always thought. At least a lot better than what they put on other bikes. If you want a cheap way to attach lic [plate after removing fender just look for this in how toos if you want a few ideas.
