Bullet front signals
#11
So a few months ago I installed the rear signal bar from an 08 street glide on my 2016 Road King. It really cleaned up and modernized the rear end by removing the pancake on chrome 2x4 look. I am now looking to do something similar to the front end.
The last option I want to do is opt for the bullet conversion kit from HD. I don't like the looks of the wide perpendicular mount. So I am looking at other options and hoping others might have some insight.
I saw a Deluxe this past weekend and it has the front end lighting I am looking for, but I doubt it would just bolt up considering the fork width is probably different. But maybe I could blow apart the signals from the aux lights and change out mine that way. Another option would be to go with the same setup street glides use when running aux lights, however I am unsure the slip on wind screen would still work.
Anyone have any other recommendations to get what I am looking for?

If you don't happen to have the older bullet conversion kit laying around, with the xxxxx-04 part number, you could most likely pick it up for much less than retail off the forum or ebay.

I went with the older bullet conversion kit from my 06 Road King, the one Harley says will only fit up to 2013, on my 15 Road King. I did have to adapt the wire ends to socket terminals so they would match the connector used on the 15. I also re-routed the wiring to go behind the forks and into the nacelle from there, instead of the factory routing. I like it much better, the lights work and there are no issues regarding the Dreaded Rushmore CANBUS electrical system.

Pick away. You can do it the way Magnut did and remove the taillight and integrate everything into the turn signals using a modern light bar, or get a light bar from an earlier model that has the taillight as well. the wiring is very simple once you start pulling it apart. The bar I picked up didn't have plugs so I had to cut my stock ones off.

I've seen these parts go for around $200 on classifieds and ebay, so you might have to search and bid for a few days but should be able to get them for much less than retail, which is about $400 total.
