Default Issue installing chrome controls

Ok

So it is sheer he'll trying to get these installed in my fatboy.

I got the left side done and the most difficult part is getting the turn signal wires back together and in the right place. On the left side I cut the wires high and spliced them back together however it was incredibly hard to accomplish. The big issue are the wires going from the turn switch to the actual signal.

Before I do the right side anyone have any advice?

I moved the gas tank back,unhooked the wiring and removed the turn signal wires from the connectors.Tape a wire to them and pulled them out of the bars.change the housing and pull them back through.Take your time.It's not that bad.Also get a service manual if you don't have one.
