Default RE: Switch Housing

Did you get Rocker specific housings. When you find out be sure to let us know. It'll help others.
Don't be discouraged if the dealer says"bring it in we'll do it".

FYI everything it seemed I bought for my '08 didn't work cause there was some kind of CHANGE Harley did and the aftermarkets didn't know about it yet. Thank God this is my fourth bike to modify otherwise it would be an expensive challenge.

These are HD parts that I got from the dealer. The parts look exactly like they should holes are in the same place and everything. I guess I am going to have to pul the wires from the inside of the handle bars unless there is a way to take the signal light apart?

Yeah, I would say locate the plug and de-pin it to get the wiring through.

Do you mean de-pin the wires from inside the signal or trace them throught the handle bars and find them that away?

Speaking for myself, I would need to know where the wires run exactly. So it come out of the housing goes into a hole in the bars,comes out the bottom at the risers then where? Should go under the tank to a relayI assume. I have no schematic on the Rocker.
