Changing out Spark Plug Cables on Fat Bob
#23
Changed mine out yesterday. Noticed that the stock leads are a lot skinnier than the SE phat leads so need some kind of cable management. Can you post a picture up of the type of fitting you used? I'm struggling to find anything that would work with the 10mm and look tidy on my Street Bob.

Get four regular tie wraps, put the head of one tie wrap facing down under your front cylinder ignition wire, loop the pig tail around the top of the wire and insert it into the head of the tie wrap, snug the tie wrap in such a way that the wire is snug but still can slide through the tie wrap. Get another tie wrap and do the same thing.
Now insert the tie wrap pig tails through the top holes in your horn bracket, get the other two tie wraps and cut the pig tails off of them (maybe leave a 1/4" on). Now take those two tie wrap heads and slip them up on the two pig tails that are going through the bracket, snug it up.
You can also use the original tie wrap heads, cut the pig tail off then use a regular tie wrap, snug it up around the wire and insert the pigtail through the original head.
To replace the rear clip that goes between the two wires, use a large tie wrap as a spacer, use a solder iron to burn a small hole near the ends, then use two small tie wraps to attach the spacer to the wire.
