Default HD Fog Light install

I juust started the install, will be running the wires through the tubes, have a question.

Instructions say to remove gas tank to run power from battery, can I just tap into the extra aux switch on the dash of the RKC and skip this step?

You don't have to take the tank off youcan ftake the consol off and run the wire under it.

Best to use supplied harness and tap in under the seat.

Do not remove tank. Just lift dash and run harness under it and the rubber shirt in front. From there drop it into the large cavity where the relay can just kinda hang.......Look for the grey uncovered female single connector under the seat. It is the +Batt connection described in the instructions-connect white wire there, and black to ground screw nearby. The +Batt is always hot, but the relay and switch provide interupt and are also fused.

If you decided to use spare ACC switch, I suggest you substitute it for the supplied pushbutton switch.

I ran the wires from the DCC faring under the console, it was tight then think I will take the tank off and get it painted at the same time. Thanks for the input guys.
