Default Turn Signal Relocation With Windshield????

Does anyone know where I can get a front turn signal relocation kit for use with a quick release windshield on a Fatboy?.....I'd like to move them down to the forks.

Someone did this not too long ago. You just need a couple of wahsers and the rubber mounting grommet for the windshield. HEre are a few pics of what mine looks like.

Get your detachable windshield and 2 5/16x3" bolts. Cut the head off the bolts, insert it into the hole. Slide windshield grommet onto screw and screw on turn signal. Use lock tight and get it good and snug. Then rewire turn signals. Install windshield. Let lock tight dry before you ride. I cut the wire and spliced them back together and tucked the splice in the space behind head light. I did not solder, just used wire nut and taped them up real good, so far no problems. Most people will suggest soldering, but it is up to you. Good luck.

a wire nut and tape on a hog? if you really hate soldering or simply can't solder, use a butt splice and some shrink tube at least... next thing you're gonna tell us you painted your tins with a brush
