indicator lights.what to do.
ok all u dyna lovers,i need ur help. i am looking to change my headlight to a more custom looking light. what i want is the back housing of the light bucket to be deeper.
i just don't want the visor to be carried over.i want to totally do away with it.so what do i do with the indicator lights.is there a bracket that is made that allows u to move them. i should say that i have 1 1/4"t-bars that i'm putting on this weekend. has anyone done anything like this? i've searched but couldn't find any help on this.anyhelp is greatly appreciated.btw.its a 03 fxdl.

RE: indicator lights.what to do.
i don't recall seeing anything for what you are doing. I guess a couple of options would be to have someone make you a small bracket with the holes for the lights that mounted to your handlebar or built in risers.
Is there any room in your tank panel? Is it possible to drill holes and mount the lights between the speedo and tach?
or i guess you could just ditch the lights.
sorry I couldn't help but there's my .02

thanks hacksaw.i'll look but i don't think there is room on the tank console.
i was thinking about buying the sportster single gage pod and cutting off the hole for the speedo or tack and have it mounted to the risers or the speedo on my tank. i'll figure something out.thanks again.
sooee.i allready have that,but i'm not sure what u are talking about,as to what that has to do with what i'm asking.i want to take the light bar that mounts on the headlight visor.thanks anyway.jay

if you do take a single gauge mount from a sporty and cut off the speedo part you could use this to mount it to your t-bars. Or maybe you could just use this part and drill holes for the indicators.
