So far, I got the inner fairing.


Anyone care to comment on how their search for parts went? Any problems along the way?

Go to Ronnies..

http://www.shopronniesharleydavidson...partfinder.htm

find your year of bike.. look for the inner & outer fairing pages..
I just did this.. I replaced my '94 fairing with a '96 & up new style..

if you need a stock radio mount.. I have one.. thought I needed it to mount my aftermarket radio..
I bought ebay and some new parts.. so far my total cost is under $900..

Picked up an outer fairing, just needs some paint. $100 on Craigslist.

Question: Where would be the best place to find gauges, primarily speedometer and tachometer for the fairing?

I have the gauges, now I need to find the connectors for them, or a used wiring harness.

Can someone please post a picture of the connectors that mate to the gauges? Trying to find a source through Newark or Mouser, just not sure what the part number is.
