Hex plugs on the front of the oil filter houseing? 07 road glide

What are they for? Are they for the oil cooler?

They are used for the manufacturing of the filter mount. If you hook an oil cooler to them, you will bypass the filter and run unfiltered oil.

agreed. went out and looked at mine on the UC. kinda hard to see/find with the lowers and cooler already installed. don't mess with them, just put your new adaptor on and the rest of the cooler parts.
