This plugs right into the stock wiring for the Garelli SSXL. Looks damn close to the stock one and works just as well. You do have to do some shaving down of the plastic to get it to properly fit against the fender, but that is no big deal.

fits alright on the back of my cimatti city bike with some finagling... appears to be a compatible replacement to the original CEV taillight assembly, but not an exact replica. the bolt seems to be lower on the taillight than on the CEV original, so if you try to attach it to the same hole in the fender it will point upward and hit the luggage rack. also the rubber gasket from the original taillight was not compatible with this one. I had to make a new lower bolt hole which causes the light to point slightly below horizontal, and made a new gasket with a tube of silicone

I acquired the original CEV version of this. For those stockers who are interested... the brake light part of the original circuit includes a low watt resistor in between it and the ground. It's included so if the brake bulb pops the bike won't crap out on Tomos. Not sure of the wattage. Do research.
UPDATE 2 YEARS:
The part that holds in the bulb itself is cheap and the wires got brittle and broke. Resoldered but it was tricky to do and I couldn't get it in there without goofing up the plastic. Started popping bulbs daily.
Just be prepared to come up with a solution for that. This is coming from a guy who ride it basically every day for 2 years.

Fit on my Maxi with a little modifiction. The bulbs a 12 volt and seem dim on a 6 volt system. I plan to upgrade to a 12 volt coil and voltage regulator.
