Step 1: Design
Map out a design you would like on your bike, or follow the one in the picture.
Step 2: Clean the Bike
Spray the area where you'll be attaching the EZ-EL wire with windex and clean it thoroughly.
Step 3: Apply Velcro to Bike and Battery Pack
Place the velcro to the battery pack and apply. Then apply the adhesive to the inside of the bike area where it is not in the way of the bike handle hitting it.
Step 4: Glue & Tape
Next, apply Rubber Cement glue and move the EL wire along the imprint of the paint. Make sure you tape as you go. Remember to let the glue sit until the next day.
Step 5: Remove Glue & Finished!
Take all the tape off and clean up the glue residue around the EZ-EL wire (ie. use windex and cloth to wipe down). Enjoy your new ride!
