I have a plan in my mind and think it will work but wanted to ask others opinions.
1st I tell you what I have A 2012 RGUltra. has the tourpack wiring harness which has the run/brake/ground wires which are hooked up to side marker lights and the spoiler run/brake light. Also have the saddle bag spoilers with the run/brake lights but they are hooked up to the acc plug under the seat.

I ordered the dynamic rings for front turn signals and the tour pak Magic strobe kit of the tour pak. My idea is to run the saddle bag lights up into the tour pak so they will have the brake strobe too.

If this all I was going to do would be not an issue but later I would like to add the integrated run/brake/turn signal LED strip from CD to the tour pak.

So not only will I need to get the saddle bag lights into the tour pak but also 2 wires for the turn signals. SO I have a 5 wire trailer wiring harness my plan is to run this into the TP and tap into the 3 wire harness that's already there, then take off the Acc plug and wire into new wires I just ran. That way I can have the saddle bags strobe also and then I will have the 2 extra wires that I can tap into the rear wiring harness for the turn signals when that time comes and just tap into the tour pak harness for the ground/run/brake.

Hope someone or ones with more wiring experience will chime in and let me know if my ideas will work.
Thanks

Not sure why you are wanting to run the wires all the way up into the TP because it is not necessary unless that is where the strobe module is. My strobe module is under the seat and as long as you tie into the wires post the strobe module the lights will work off of it.

Yes I just have the TP strobe, I already had the Brightass strobing tail light so was saving a few $$$s with just the TP strobe.

I got the wires rerouted for the saddle bag lights now if just running 2 wires from the tour pak to the corresponding wires in the rear light harness will work then later I can add TP run/brake/turn.

You need to run an isolator harness for you trailer .. .. Runs those lights off the battery , but they are still spliced into the brake/turn signals
Actually Jack I am just using an old trailer harness wires for Tourpak lighting.
I moved the wires for the saddle bag lights from the Acc plug under the seat to the TP wiring harness and hooked up those 3 wires. Now hoping to get an LED strip that has run/brake/turn function and use the other 2 wires from the trailer harness to tap into the rear lighting harness's 2 turn signal wires.


Guess my concern was will it matter that I am getting the power for the run/brake and ground from the TP harness and then power for the turn signals from a different harness, for the same light strip
