Will the factory light connect to those brackets?? If so I'm ordering a set.

TOMMAY,
I also put the relocation kit on my 06 WideGlide. No turning back once you pull the wires from the bars. Anyway, I also wasn't happy with the gap between the stems and the triple trees. I ended up getting a stainless steel washer, cutting it in half and putting it between the clamp. This prevented the stem from comming away from the triple tree when I tightened the bolts and left the stem closer to the forks and now I am happy with it. Good luck

It should. The description says it uses a 5/16 bolt to attach. That is the right size to the best of my knowledge. I ordered them last night.

Just my 2 cents, but I like the signals on the bars.I agree that on the forks it reminds me of a metric. I really like the visor extension on the headlight. From Harley? If not where did you get it.

I think the original location looks better. If you installed the clear or smoke lenses and left them on the handlebars they would be less noticeable. I dont even really notice them with the amber lenses now.

I prefer no blinkers at all but have to have them for safety inspection. I put some tiny (one LED) bullet blinkers up under the triple trees in the front and in the stock location in back. I powdercoated them black so they are virtually invisible. Every single person has asked me how I get away with not having blinkers and I have to point them out to them. The are only about 1 1/2" long and less than 1/2" wide. They are actually super bright and more noticable than a regular blinker I think since the light is so bright and concentrated.
