Default '92 Heritage Help

Seeking help for a lighting issue on my 92 Heritage. I'm wanting to remove the front chrome bumper but noticed the left and right running lamps (sorry I don't know the technical term) appear to be factory hard wired with the front fender lamp which I want to keep for nostalgic aesthetics. I have checked my parts and service manuals in addition to internet searches with zero success for support on this front bumper configuration. Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.





Wiring coming from the interior side of fender into the light housing.

Those side lights are aftermarket, probably from Kury Akyn ... they can be easily removed ... I have a set on my Electra Glide

Do you recall how they are wired; are they spliced into the wiring for the front fender lamp?

if you pop off the fender tip lens you may be able to see how the PO wired them in ... when I did mine I ran the wire under the corner of the fender tip light and hooked in to the fender tip light ... removing the amber lens on the side lights will let you access the screws that hold the lights to the rail, it's a squeeze clamp type system, there are two on each light ...
