Default Passing lights switch move

About the only thing I don't care for on the new RKC is the switch location for the aux lights. It sucks and unsafe to try and use while riding, especially at night. I was thinking about an aux switch mount assy on the bars. Has anyone else considered this or done it?

I am mounting an aux switch housing on the left grip to relocate the toggle on my 03 Heritage for the passing lamps. At the same time I am going to add the HD fog lamps that mount on the engine guard and power them from there as well.

I was thinking the same thing, mine are always on why would you want to turn them off?

Turning them off greatly increases you're chance of becoming a statistic!
