Can't goof around roadside much longer - coffee shop opens at 6:45 and I've got miles to go.

Tom  do you have running lights brake, and turn lights on both of your scooters , did you use Admore wiring , or a 5 pin flat plug to do the wiring,    I brought my scooter to the dealer with the Admore wiring , and they did not know how to do the wiring , and left me with running and brake lights only,.  and they had the nerve to charge me $ 185,00 to do that,  and he said no scooter until you pay,  now they are the only Piaggio dealer in town, I wonder why I do all of my own service, and mod,s   ha ha ./  I installed  5 pin flat plug wiring for the top box from bestem,  and have running , brake and turn signals on both of my scooters top boxes,.

On the Piaggio Liberty when installing the Admore light bar I relied heavily on Robot's youtube video....mainly for the wiring instructions...here,
https://youtu.be/MLUpjrK2ifQ?t=916 (https://youtu.be/MLUpjrK2ifQ?t=916)

That made it very, very simple!  - Your dealer should have found it simple to splice 2 more wires for the turn signals!
I chose not to wire up to the turn signals of the AdMore bar - just didn't like the way they looked when working as turn signal - figured the nice Liberty turn pods work well and are quite visible.

So have running light and brake light LEDs with the Admore, and the same LEDs (running & brake) on the Bestem case. No turn signals.
I just wired as Robot did in his video.

That sucker sure is bright, day or night! In running light mode...

After paying $299 for the custom color matched Piaggio case, $100 for the mounting and $130 for the AdMore - I figured I'd take a shot at a self install of the case and the light bar!

But I love it - and the scoot is officially finished!
