R18 tc
hello everyone,
Is the brake lights on R18TC's trunk just a brake light? Is it possible implement it as Driving-Lights and brake lights at the same time!

Maybe you can do something custom, using the existing wiring from the side case mounted tail lights or the fender license plate light to illuminate the top box light; check the brake lights and see if the wiring is made up of two wires or three wires. Probably best to understand how the lighting changes from driving lights vs brake light in terms of intensity; you can probably accomplish the wiring under the rear seat, vs having to run additional wiring.

Great idea!thank you my friend.
I still can't understand why BMW make this design, the lighting effect at the back of this bike is not good!
