I copied Tomouley's idea on pannier lights. Its as handy as having a glove box light in the car (which mine does not have ). I used these:

They have 3M tape on them, so they are stuck in place, and not usable as a flashlight like Tomouleys are. Perhaps in the future I will add a second one with an extension cord on it. :smile:
Another change I made was to flush mount the switch. Next time I stop at the spouses shop (auto glass) I plan on stealing a bit of urethane and putting some on the backside of the switch and the hole I drilled for the light, just to make it leak proof.
I also added a dash light. Mine is cool white with black housing. Used the same style switch.

In the future, I will add one of them flush mount LED's to each fairing pocket. I only bought enough to do my NT and the faux-tank 'pocket' on the spouses NC.
Dash light.
Pannier light:
Switch/light:
Fuzeblock:
Separate lines for Dash lights, GPS, tank bag, Battery Tender, pannier lights. The front fender LED's are hard wired through the headlight and the rear LED's are hardwired to the license plate light.
Wire routing up to front. Yellow going down towards fender is for the front fender LED's, green wire is for the switched wire on the Fuzeblock. I added it to the front parking light in the headlight bowl. PITA to do that, but it worked well. Yellow going up towards the dash is for the GPS and the tank bag (phone, etc).
