Default Spotlight Mod

Hey guys I need your help. I've searched this but to no avail. I have a 2006 Heritage Softail and I wanna wire the spots to stay on when headlight is on bright. I've done the free Mod on my Limited but since the Heritage doesn't have an auxiliary switch I can't figure out how to make this work. Is this even possible to do on the Softails??? Thanks in advance.

Harley makes a kit for that.

Part number 69200442 - $29.95

INDEPENDENT CONTROL AUXILIARY LAMP WIRE
HARNESS KIT
Maximize your nighttime view down a lonely stretch of back
road. This simple-to-install wiring harness permits independent
control of your bike’s auxiliary lamps, and allows the
lamps to be switched on when the headlamp is in either the
low or high beam setting.

Fits ’96-later FL Softail and ’97-’13 Road KingŽ models
equipped with auxiliary lamps.

Kuryakyn offers something similar as well:

..as do a few other places, like Surdyke.

Ok thanks Jam. I thought there may be a way to do it like I did on my Limited.

Just bear in mind that it sounds as though you may need a switch for the aux. lights to use the H-D kit, which you say you don't have.

The Kuryaykn kit OTOH sounds like it doesn't matter, so you may want to check that out.

I found a thread that says there's a keyed hot wire (orange&white) that is unused under the tank that can be used for a hot wire for the auxiliary lamps. I'll give this a try.
