Default Fitting Screamin Eagle Plug Wires

I'm about to order some red plug wires, purely for looks - part 31937-99B.

I was just wondering how you go about clipping the larger 10mm leads. There's a couple of little clips that hold the standard lead to the top of the horn. I can't see if you can get these off the original lead, or whether there's a replacement clip or clips you need to order along with the leads themselves. Also I guess the small black clip nearer the coils which holds the standard 8mm leads won't clip the 10mm leads.

Anyone know?

OK, thanks all.

Is it that the horn clips are one-use clips, or that they're too small for the larger leads?

And no running problems with the higher resistance cables on the standard coils? I saw a thread somewhere recently where a few people had suspected using SE leads on stock ignition as being behind a few bad-running issues?

I've had mine installed for months without being secured by a clip.

This is not a big deal. Use a zip tie.
