Thank you. Liking them so far by just sitting on it, but once she’s back together I’ll give further updates. They’re a super tight fit, once they’re torqued to specs they’re not going to move. I’m trying to streamline the bike and feel these stock lights look good on the touring bikes with fairings. I personally think they are too big for the softails. No plans for front or rear turn signals. Someone inquired about the stock bars. I had to cut the wires so whoever gets them would need to splice and solder.
What would you want for the OEM rear black blinkers?
[QUOTE=andres.0321@hotmail.com;19363956]all 4? I assume you want the front and rear mounts as well?[/QUOTE/
I was just wanting the rears. I replaced the fronts already with small LED’s. I thought the blinker housing just bolted thru the fender strut. Is that not the case?
Edit- I think I know what you mean now. There’s the blinker housing and then the short arm that it’s connected to that goes to the fender strut. I thought it was all one piece. I’d be interested in the housing and the short arm.

Small changes....we all know the stock look. So I added black side covers from the Heritage: The black from the ft fender, tanks, and rear fender all tie together now. The big thing for me is to keep the focus on the V shape of the engine and pipes. Toward that end, a smaller air cleaner is coming soon.
But the biggest change for me was the handlebar. I never thought the tall pullback risers "fit" the old-school design of the Deluxe. I can not seem to find the old-style FL type bars that will work on this bike, so just thought to try lower risers and guess what? The new setup, including a Sundowner seat, is much more comfortable, even at highway speeds (for a short distance). For reference, I stand 6' and weigh 215lbs.

Finally got my stage 1 installed last weekend. Fun fact: the Performance Machine Jet A/C doesn't look like it will install in the vertical mounting position on a Fat Bob that has the stock exhaust and heat shields. Turns out that the heat shield sticks up/out too much, and the pointed end of the teardrop hits the heat shield and doesn't allow the mounting holes/bolts to line up with the backing plate.
