Default Switchback owners.....need help

I just finished installing the FLD rear fender on my superglue custom. I just picked up the license plate light (white light) that mounts underneath the turn signal bar. Can someone take a picture or tell me where the license plate light plugs into? It should plug somewhere inside with the plugs hidden by the brake light. Thanks!

If this link works it will show you the components, there's an oem parts finder enter the fld and go to the rear tail light page

Thanks. I'll give that a try. I have/use another link that shows OEM parts and the exploded view of the parts but it doesn't show the electrical connections.

I think you're going to find there's a different wiring harness on the rear of the FLD than on the superglide

Are you 100% sure it plugs into the board? You need to find both the wire schematic and the hardware drawing the show the harness that goes to the board from the main harness to get the answers you seek unless some that has taken the setup apart chimes in. Good luck!
