Roto plate install

Hi
for those with the roto plate ( not jr) how did you do the wiring? Where did you splice into for the power? Did you gointo the wiring harness under seat? Which wires?(color) I have a 09 xbones.

Thanks for help

I installed a different plate mount but used the blue wire off the rear wiring harness.

Just looking at the schematic, if it has a brake light on it as well. The brake is Red/Yellow and Running light is the Blue. So if it has license plate illumination light it can run to the blue wire as well. Might need a load equalizer, if your turn signals start acting funny then you need one.

shouldn't need an equalizer for just a tail/running light. Especially if you are still running the stock tail light. IIRC you only need the equalizer for turn signals
