I have used them many times.. https://www.posi-products.com/
and also these http://www.wago.com/221/us/?_ga=2.14...241.1495731197

Both can be bought on Amazon
Good luck!!
These are awesome! I'll show you the final result when I get the fairing and turn signals installed.

You can buy a box of 22 gauge wires, 10 different colors here .

Amazon Amazon

You may want heavier wire , but you can buy all gauges, multi color, for wiring work

Still good for nothing but worthless smart *** answers I see!

You cut the turn signal wires off at the hand control modules and rewire them to the turn signal connectoer in the frame...6 place connector with 2 black 2 blue 1 brown and 1 violet wires...brown is right violet is left!


That information all comes with the Harley relocation kit!

No. I infer to or ask people to think through or look up their own work when the answer is going to be as plain as the nose on their face. I'm just not near as condescending as you are!
Most people on here don't eat, drink and **** Harley Davidson like you seem to do. If you want to refer to smart *** answers, you've got to look no further than how you post responses . GTFO !!!

This IS NOT a smartass answer, and it is in fact the only INTELEGENT response you got.
IMAGINE a piece of rope with only ONE END. Think REAL HARD.
NOW imagine a turn signal wire with only ONE END.
If you would stop telling lies about reading the service manual, and actually take a few minutes to read it, you'd find out you are disassembling the wrong end! DO you wipe your mouth when you crap or have you learned the correct end to service yourself. No matter, by now you've probably cut the wires so it's all TOO late to do it correctly. By the way, the fastest way to get that dirty oil out of your engine IS WITH A SLEDGE HAMMER.
Have fun destroying your bike.

You...AND OldEnuf would BOTH be wrong because the service manual says NOTHING about how to wire a turn signal relocation kit...THAT information comes with the kit, from Harley, and is what I posted!

When you dont KNOW what your talking about...bad information is worse for the guy asking the question than no information!

Realy? Just what the **** was condescending or smart assed about telling the guy how to do the job hes trying to get answers for? Gave him the whole proceedure, what color wires do what and where to find the information! YOU, once again, dole out misinformation and didnt give a single ounce of help! So why dont you GTFO....or STFU unless you have actual helpfull information!

Where did I say that the Service Manual would show how to wire the turn signals up. All I said that it would show how to disassemble and/or replace them. I was taking for granted that once he disconnected them he would pay enough attention on how to rewire them! I know that there are instructions that come with almost every part that you can get from the MoCo and if they're missing you can go to the website and get them from there.. I dropped my signals down from the bars as soon as I got the FXDWG.

If you weren't spending all your time trying to run this forum and being the absolute authority on HD's maybe you wouldn't come off as being such an ***.

If it's the same as my 14' FXDF you basically cut the wires off at the bottom and just inside of each switch housing. Pull the lights. You'll have to then seal off the wires/holes on the bottom of the switch housing. I used liquid electrical tape to seal the short stubby cut wire ends and then tucked them inside the switch housing. Before I put the switch housing covers back on I used some 5min epoxy to seal the holes on the bottom of the cover.
From there dig the wiring harness out of the frame neck on the bike and you'll find 2 unused connectors that you'll use to now connect your lights at the frame. Either buy and crimp fresh oem plugs on your lights or splice them directly.

to seal wire ends that have been cut off I also use a little dab of Liquid Elect Tape, let it dry, then cover with electric tape.....probably over done but effective protection against shorts. Here is a link
