    R1200ST Best place to tap into switched-on 12v power?

    The R1200ST wiring is probably pretty close to RT so perhaps I can get some advice on tapping into 12v switched-on power without throwing Can-Bus errors. I just reconditioned some junkyard panniers and want to wire up led marker lights on them when they are mounted. All of the accessory...

    Switched power lead rear of 07RT

    I added a set of Skene Design P3 LED lights to the rear of my 07RT and followed these install instructions which used the green/white alarm wire to power the red controller wire.
