Driving Lights & Accessory Switch Wire
Driving Lights & Accessory Switch Wire
I was wanting to know is anyone has installed the Kuryakyn driving lights on a road glide. If so do they give off a lot more light or are they just over priced flashlights. Also does anyone know is the stock accessory switch wire goes into the fairing or does it just shoot directly to under the seat. I didn't know if maybe I was able to tap into it behind the fairing or I have to run the wire all the way to under the seat......
Thanks

the plug for acc switch is under seat, to run wires you have to remove fuel tank there are so many wires in the plastic trough that it is impossible to snake wires through it; if you want the lights on all the time you could probably use the connectors in fairing on headlight wires. i have moto lights so i do not know how the Kuryakn work.

I have them
I installed the Kuryakyn Lights.
The lights do add additional lights to the road, but they are Not Driving Lights.
They give a wide area in front of the bike, like Fog Lights.
They can be angled up to give a wider pattern in front of the bike. It is great for those that pull in front and slow down.
As for the Accessory Switch, the Factory plug is under the seat. But you can tap into it in the Instrument Housing. If you do, the plug under the seat will also be turned on when you switch it on.
I installed one of the Kuryakyn Double Pole Fairing Switch. I moved the Speedometer reset button to between the speedometer/Tachometer. Then I used a Dremel tool and opened the hole to match the Factory Switch. I could have just took a Harley Lighted switch, but I wanted two switches to use LED to light the motor.
Here is how it looks.
