Exclamation Tank Lift Complete!!!! How'd U do it?????

Very simple say the least. I bought some brackets from ACE since they were already drilled perfectly every 2 inches. Anyways ran the wires under the tank just like everybody else but left out the ignition wire since I dont know yet where to put it? IDEAS? My only question is how did ya'll run all the wires coming from the Handelbars/Dummy Lights? All on the Left side,Right side or straight down the middle under the Bar clamp? I did mine kinda half and half. I tried mine down the middle but didnt like the look but still deciding. I'll post pics later
So how'd you do yours?????????????????????????????????????

Yeah I believe it is the same....the reason I went half and half was to me it was a bit much for all of them to be on one side....but I like NAKED so thats my opinion.
The Leftside Handlebar wires went Left and the Rightside Handlebar wires went Right. And I'm OCD LOL

I drilled a 1 and 1/8" hole in the battery cover (left side). I cut down the cheap plastic cup that holds the ignition to make it even with the wire connections on the back. Then it fits perfectly on top of the batter and the key slot pops up flush with the top of the side cover. The batter holds the whole thing in place and the ignition is virtually invisible. I will try and get some pictures uploaded if it would help.
