I was needing to know if anyone can tell me how to get the key switch on my consol? I have an 07 street bob and am tired of reaching forward to turn the thing on. Any help would be great. I"ve seen them on the new Wide Glide and it looks like the dash as mine.

 

I can tell you that you will have to re-route a bunch of wiring, that will entail removing the tank, maybe even have to change out the bolt-on plate (to the tank) that your console mounts to...

 

do a search....theres a couple good threads with how to pics

 

BEST MOD I EVER DID , BESIDES MY MINI FLOOR BOARDS !

1) Console;
Chrome is 61712-08
Black is 61732-10

2)Speedo Gasket (different than Street Bob gasket)
70706-08

3)Ignition Switch
71313-96A

4)Switch bracket
71766-08

5)Self tapping screws (4)
2501A

6)Ignition switch label
71262-05

7)Fork lock decal (minus ignition/accessory icons)
14130-06B

You also need to give them your ignition key number when you order they will make you 2 copies of your current one and you will have 4 keys ! ( No charge either )

Its not that hard to do really, you dont have to reroute much wiring either, just one bundle with 3 wires in it, you do have to extend it though, approximately 6 inches. Here are a couple pics of my install, you should be able to figure out how to do most of it with the pics. You also dont have to remove the tank, but it definitely makes it easier. I used an oem key switch, made a plate to mount it to on top of the plate already on the tank, and I just used spacers from lowes to get the switch to the height I wanted. I would recommend using a 2" hole saw, and some sort of grommet to take up the extra space on the console.

In these pictures, the switch is a little high, I actually adjusted it back down to correct height. Keep in mind, you can also just drill holes in the console and mount the switch to those, but I dont like that look, looks much cleaner this way.

Also, when you do it my way, I recommend getting some orings to put between the new plate, and the factory one, I had trouble with gas leaking at first, until I added some orings in the middle.

 

That's awesome... thanks for the post! I have been planning a FXDWG dash panel upgrade on my FXDB to get the key up on the tank where it belongs, but I was hesitating due to the high cost of the FXDWG dash panel. (over $200 shipped just for the dash panel and gasket alone -- and thats at discount, and thats *not* including the cost of the ignition switch itself!)

Thanks to your ideas in your post, I'm going to just mod the original FXDB dash panel, and mount the keyswitch in it. If I'm unhappy about how it turns out, I can always bite the bullet and buy the FXDWG dash.

Thanks again,
Kent
