There's a chance of breaking the brake lite switch if ya forget the shim. Heard its a real pita to change if you do. You can check it by turning the ign switch on and if the brake lite is on without pulling the lever its broke. Got my fingers crossed for ya! Im not sure about the wiring on a dyna. On my sporty I just raised the front of the tank to get to the plugs.
