Hi Bruce

Welcome to the forums.

on my 09 I wired my led plate light into the wiring for my rear fender tip light- I removed the pins from the connector, added my extra wires and reinserted the pins.

or you can wire to the run light circuit

blue is run lights & black is ground

Hi Fellas, H-D changed their system in 2014 and the system in not that easy to break into. They are doing Run to the low filament and Stop & Turn to the high filament. The diagram above has a center taillight, and your model does not, pretty sure. I would recommend dropping a pair of Radiantz 1157 Retro Fit LED's to increases your visibility...

Now, there is an auxiliary plug, under the side cover, on the primary side. That plug will have the Run and Brake functions in it.
