Post console light plug

I'm removing my tank to install some things and fix some wiring. The tank part I have going ok, but have the following question (I won't be putting tank back on till tomorrow at least).

The console light plug (2007 FXDB Street Bob) that shows the Neutral light, the Oil light etc. When it popped off I forgot to mark which way it goes back on. I know if I get if backwards I could always pull it off later and switch it,

BUT is there any way to tell which way it goes on ?

Yes it is marked " TOP " , front I could understand, top I am not sure what to do with that. There is no top, it is under the console.

Post Also this

Also for future ease of my crossover hose:
Jiffy-tite 5/16" Barbed End, Aluminum Quick Disconnect fuel fitting kit, part no. JT22505, is for sale at both Amazon and www.proracestore.com for $19.xx but I wanted to buy it local (Central Florida) by Monday. Guess I will try NAPA.
A friend told me the 1/4" ID line works better on the Harley Tank (even though the manual says 5/16" ID on the crossover hose, anybody want to comment on that ?

Actually I found in my HD parts manual a schematic of the OEM console light and it shows the "TOP" label going to the front of the bike. Two things that are priceless are the Repair Manual and the Parts manual.

Gas line is fairly cheap so I tried the 1/4" line. It does in fact still go on easy enough and is much quicker to clamp down.

At the very least I would use it for a stub plug line while working on tank.
I am thinking of just buying quick connects in 1/4 and moving to 1/4 completely.

Seems I am writing to myself on this thread. Oh well someone might find it interesting.
