    Look up this on YouTube. It requires a substantial disassembly and wire
    re-routing. Looked to me like a full day's work. But maybe worth the effort.

    Mike, have you looked at the Evotech one, I've fitted them to mine and my wife's Street Triples and the quality is just excellent. You also don't need to modify the wiring, it has all the necessary cables and connectors.

    Yes, they're more expensive than the ebay one you're looking at but I think they're well worth the money.

    I ended up ordering a J-Tech one off Ebay:

    https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Triumph-...680991?hash=item2639097f5f:g:kTYAAOSw2s5dnY8Z

    ....will see what it is like apparently it is plug in play as I will reuse the rear indicator stalks.

    Also ordered a 8x6" UK plate to go with it.

    I did look at the Evotech one, however it was out of stock on their website.

    Mike :D

    Well the J-Tech (from eBay) tail tidy arrived today as did the 8x6. The kit was very easy to fit and all the electronics were plug in play for the rear LED number plate light.

    Here are some before, during and after photos:

    I'm after the Evotech one and have been for a few weeks. When I e mailed them the other day to check when they'd be back in stock they said 10 - 12 weeks. It might have to be a late Xmas present!

    The official Triumph one looks identical to the Evotech, with the Triumph one you can omit the middle section and lower reflector, replace reflector with a very small stick on one for the number plate (for mot when needed). No modifications to wiring at all, it fits easy and looks great, also cheaper than the Evotech one.

    Do you have any photos of the Triumph one fitted? When you look at the image on the website it looks as big as the standard one, which is the only reason I was looking at the EvoTech model (the only photo is with it off the bike)

    Hi JB1970'here are some photos, not very good I am afraid, it will give you an idea though, real easy to fit, no messing about with wiring, from start to finish it took me 20 mins, it's good quality kit, I've fittend both the Evotech and Triumph ones, the Triumph is cheaper as well. Good luck with whatever you decide, but bear in mind some cheaper alternatives don't have the same quality finish and durability as say the Triumph or Evotech, the R&G for example shreds its paint after a winters riding. Hope this helps.

    Thanks for that. Looks nothing like the way I imagined from the image on the Triumph website. I'll order that one rather than wait for the EvoTech one to become available.

    Hi JB, when it arrives if you are not sure about anything please feel free to message me, but honestly it's really easy to fit, 4 bolts and washers, go careful when removing the bolts as it's easy to drop a washer of the bolt, put some tissue in the gaps that way if a washer drops it will catch it, otherwise it will go down the undertray and a pig to retrieve. Let me know how you get on.

    Thanks. I fitted the EvoTech footage blanking plates yesterday and must've dropped the bolts several times into the abyss!
