Default Solo seat question on 08 SG

It warmed up to a whopping 19* today, so I went out in the shop and put the Danny Gray solo seat on. What are you guys doing about the EXPOSED wiring/harness/deutch connector on the left side? Looks retarded and lies right on top of the rail / fender. 2 sets of wires...No quick disconnect on one, so impossible to hide under the rail?????

You have the same bike and didn't have this mess? It's not the seat maker, it's HD.

All I did was gently massage it down on my bike. Between the fender and chrome cover. With my bike being black, it didn't look that bad. That was before I put the fender overlay on. It is now completely hidden. If I remember right, you could take the time and take the wiring apart at the connections along with undoing the antenna and reroute everything. Just pack everything along the side and reinstall with new zip ties.
