Default Need Help Wiring the Front Fender Light

The previous owner of my 2009 heritage cut the wire under the fender that connects the front fender light. Can anyone tell me where this wire would connect to on the bike? I want to hook it back up.

Thanks!

Fendertip light is a powered by black and orange w/white stripe wires from the headlight 4 wire connector. (on an '07 heritage) Don't know if that changed from '07 to '09.

Once you open the headlight bezel and find a suitable source that coincides with the input you need, just bridge it.
All the open-close circuits run toith and fromith that location.

Are you guys saying to tap into the headlight wire?? I would think there should be an unused plug in the bezel?

No matter how you "cut it" argh argh argh..you are going to splice into either hot side of IGN switch (on all the time) or headlight switch if you have one.
Don't let it scare you-pretty simple really
