I'll probally use a Givi460 top box w/the R1200Rt mount for the Gt. Ill be needing a method of adding the optional LED kit Givi supplies to work w/ either the tail or brake or both. I'de figure I could just cut in a relay on the Canbus system in combo w/ a fused input from the battery. I might be wrong. I'll probally use the Tourtech TPS-15 from the aux. output for heated clothes, and other misc. switched outputs. Any info appreciated.

I put the TPS-15 on both my GS and GT it's great for adding aux. items. I mounted it right on my battery on my GT . Just be careful where you hook up your yellow wire you'll want to hook it into your aux. plug not your running lights. Hope this helps. You might want to consider putting in an additional aux. plug next to the other one. (right to the battery) that way you can use your battery tender also. And use it for your heated clothing.

I will be getting mine this coming week. I believe I will be able to run off one of the tailight bulb, hot connectors.

It is believed, the BMW system will drive the top case LED kit, for both running and stop, without causing any problems, due to 'light load' nature of the led string recev'd from GIVI..

I will let you know what happens, as soon as I hook mine up..
