Default Not Bad

I just did mine a couple of days ago. All you need are allen wrenches and maybe a phillips screwdriver. I didn't have to disconnect any wiring harnesses. The stem on the turn signals come out with allen wrenches.
I'll see if i have any pics.

You should be able to find the HD instructions for the HD relocation part, I down loaded the instructions for the Dyna. They may not be perfect for your parts but should help a lot.
