I forgot to mention that I ran the wiring all the way back down to the factory T/S harness plug at the neck and soldered directly to the factory terminals then reinstalled them into the factory plug. No chance of a bad connection or corrosion in a butt splice to give me hassles down the road. You will be after the Purple wire and Black wire for each side.
P.S, Let me know what you think of your Reckless fairing. Thinking of ordering one for my Dad for a late Fathers Day present but wanted to talk to someone who has one to get an idea of the quality. You can message me directly.

Man they just slid right over my plain covers I kinda tapped them on with a rubber mallet been there for bout 700 miles. But hey if they fall off im out 2 bucks. Keep us posted
That's kinda what I was thinkin' - I'd want the bullet head versions and it should be the same; kinda luck the HG nuts are the same size as trucks...gonna be worth some CB chatter down the Big Road!
In tha' meantime...I added "Rah" to the back fender:

If you add a few drops of silcone in them they should stay on there real nice until you actually want them to come off
