Default Handlebar Switch Kit
So I pulled a bonehead move the other day switching my bars and when I tightened my clutch lever one the wiring for my switches got caught and I broke a wire. Now i have no left side running light, cant use my high beams no left turn signal and my horn doesnt work. anyone know of a good place where I could get one? Do I have to buy both sides or can I just get the one side? I don't feel like paying what harley wants. Wil if I gotta tho

Can't you just solder and heat shrink it?
