I just wired my spot lights to pull power for when you have the brights on. Very useful in the country at night to light up Bambi in the ditch

I just wired up a USB plug to mine yesterday.

I've got a 98 RK with the same switch- could I use that switch for garage door remote?

Note: This plug is definitely under the seat area. Not to be confused with the same type plug on the left side, which is a diagnostic outlet (on '08 RoadKing). I mistakenly plugged the accessory into the left side, and got "bus Er" message on my dash when the device was plugged in. Once I located the correct outlet under the seat, the connection works fine. Note: The left fork toggle switch controls the power, when the bike is turned on. Ran a usb under the dash, to the front fork area to power a gps.

Mine turns the cruise control on/off. I guess 2001 RKC didn't come with cruise? Looks like a factory add on.
