I'm looking for information about the Rocker Switch Housings. On the left side lower the wires for the turn signal run through the lower part of the housing. Does anyone have an idea about how this is to be done without pulling the wires out of the handle bars? Here is a pic of the lower half.
I took the picture with my phone.
What I am trying to do is replace the black switch housings and hand grips with crome ones. On the left switch housing the wiring for the left turn signal run through the lower part of the switch housing. I wanted to know if there is a way to disassemble the turn signal or do I have to pull the wires from the junction? In otherwords pulling them throught the frame and handle bars?
If your existing housings are stock Harley everything will come right apart. If your new Chrome housings are Harley they will have complete instructions.
