I had my ignition out to do the fork oil change and moved the front wheel side to side numerous times. Put the switch back in at the same position that I removed it from and it fell right back into place...Maybe I was lucky???
You were lucky. Typically if the wheel is turned while the chrome ignition switch is out, the internals get out of alignment and the only way to get the switch back in is with a special tool Harley has....Although, many have said the re-alignment can be done with a flat blade screwdriver.
Best thing is to simply keep the wheel in the same position and slip the switch back in after the chrome install.
I just put the brushed do-dad piece on my SG...Looks OK but why not a chrome bezel?????
Are you listening MoCo.............
I'm with you. With all the gauge rings being chrome and everything else being chrome why did they make the radio faceplate a brushed aluminum ?? I was going to buy it but it stuck out like a sore thumb. If they ever make it in chrome it will be a must have.
I suppose that the radio bezel is brushed aluminum because MoCo thought it wouldn't reflect the sun so much. But I think I might polish mine to help it better match the chrome. Or not....
