Anyone have a link to a site I can buy this part for a 2004 FLSTCI and also a link to a video to show how to install?

Just had to replace mine about a month ago. The Engine Temp Sensor is located at the rear of the front cylinder. Access it from the left side of the bike. There is a little trick to getting it in and out. You must use a deep well socket to clear the electrical connection on top of the sensor however the overall length of the deep well socket and attached ratchet will make contact with the rear cylinder. Use a hack saw and cut 1 inch off the end of the socket. The socket and ratchet will then easily fit between the cylinders. This is an easy replacement item once you have the correct length socket.
