Thinking about Lighted Hand Controls

I have seen other people post about them and get made fun of for them. I dont think they are required as most of us know the controls by muscle memory. However I have had a Can-Am and a BMW motorcycle that have had them and I will say they make the hand controls look finished and classy. I also would like to have them on my Ultra Limited. It is a shame they are so expensive or I would already have them.

2 little plugs connect to each switch pack. The instructions that came with mine had a typo regarding the mounting bolt torque, though. Way higher than the service manual calls for and would have probably stripped them.
I guess the MOCO must feel obligated to get at least one thing wrong with everything they sell - just for the sake of "tradition" if nothing else.
Really like the look and they work as advertised, plus they come with a full 1-year warranty. The sales guy said they're more "water resistant" too - but who knows.

Exactly!

And for me, BECAUSE they're unnecessary, I'm willing to install them, but only if I didn't have to wire through the bars; too much hassle.
Thanks!!!
