I have recently acquired a 05 deluxe in black and white and recently seen a thread where someone put white plug wires on their bike and thought i like the look so i ordered up a set of white wires, tonight im looking at what keeps them in place and i can see these conehead kind of wire ties that are inserted down thru the motor mount to keep them in place. see below


Now my question is are these little beldar conehead lookin things re useable after removal and whats the technique for finnesin' em out without wrecking them or are they a onece in, remove and buy new ones?
thanks for any help-dave

 

no. not reusable. it's like a zip tie that has a end to push through the hole as you can see. i just used a zip tie and ran it through the hole as that one was

 

Thanks for the reply, ill just snip em off, got lots of zip ties so im good to go

 

Is what I did til I thought about when I was at the dealer. 2 or 3 visits later. couple bucks apiece I think.

 

you can buy new ones they are a nag to get in but can be done with patients i have very little but got it done

 

To me its not worth the bother of getting 'special' Harley ties.
I just used black zip ties and called it done.
On your bike with white wires I would just use white ones so they don't show unless your really looking.

 

+1 on the dealer. I changed my plug wires and the next time I was at the dealer I asked about them. They had one left.
