You got the HD part number by any chance? I'd like to add that to the '10 SG I bought Friday.

I added that to my 2010 Road Glide Custom. It should have come from the factory that way. To all the folks complaining about them removing the taillight on the FLTRX... this setup (2 running lights and tri-bar light) puts out a ton more light than a single bulb light on the fender.

flhxkiller....
My bike came with the factory tri-bar light. What I want is all lights to activate during breaking. The part Harley sold me is 69462-06A page 645 Auxiliary Break light/running light/turn signal conversion kit, they say the connection in under my seat but I can't find it. I traced the wire from the rear and the plug is near the fuse box left side. So has anybody done this mod?

I have the taillight, rear turn signals and tri-bar going ON when I hit the brakes on my '09 SG. If I had a 2010 bike, I would also use all the rear lights I could...

Street Glide 2010 Tri Bar light upgrade
I have recently purchased a 2010 Streetglide (English version with dual pipes as I am in the UK) and bought the Tri Bar light upgrade to increase braking visablity plus it looks cool. after fitting I found it worked but the indicators/brake lights now don't work, all that happens is the left hand rear indicator stays on and nothing else but the tribar works including brake light.
Thinking it was a duff one I took it back to the dealer who replaced it and guess what?? ... the same symptons! either they are a dodgy batch or something is not compatable? can't think of anything else? any ideas?

For what it is worth there was a thread a few months back stating that the 09 frames were discontinued because they were having a few issues with cracking. The guy posting claimed that they had discontinued making a 2009 frame and had removed it from the parts look up and it could not be ordered. He said they only were offering the new improved 2010 frame for replacements on the 2009 models.
I could never confirm this with anyone I spoke to but I think if there was a problem and a change that is was very minor and really only made the frame better.
This could be what the guy was referring to.

tri bar
This is what I did , I too have HDI.
Buy the 67774-10 tri bar for US. Now as you all know the plug in is wired differently therefore the rear lights dont work the same if you simply unplug and change.
This is what i did . I bought the tribar. Use a heat gun and heat the 2 prongs. 1 on each side of the light. Slowly soften them up and the joint all around. Pri them a little outside and use a screwdiver to open the lens away from the body. now you are looking at the inside. You'll see a red transistor board with 3 wires (blue tail black ground red brake)going to the back into the black plug in in behind the tri bar. Cut the 3 wires as far in as you can so you have enough to splice extensions. Once cut just pull the board out.
Now do the same with the 2010 lens open it up. Obviously this one is empty inside. Insert the circuit board in it . I drill a hole at the back to pull the wires through. Once done re install the lens, reheating slowly to the bring back the prongs to their original place. I use a little bit of slicone to seal the joint. reinstall the tri bar in its place on the moto.
By doing this you keep the original wiring configuration of the black rear plug in.
Now the 3 wires poking through the lens at the back are ground black, red brake and blue tail. Run those 3 to the tour pack plug in behind the left side panel. Bingo you're done. I did mine and it works 100%
