I haven't wired it yet!! The light bar came with with purple and black wires still attached. The guy that sold them to me on ebay actually removed the stocked connectors properly. Once I remove the old lights I'll take the connector apart and slide the wires from the light bar into the connector. I gotta take the rear tail light off and notch the bottom of the chrome for the wires to fit and go under the tail light into the back and plug it in. If I wasn't clear I'll take pics when I finish her up and post up on here.

Alright it's all wired and works. For wiring who would have thought Harley had standard wiring?? Nope guess the street glide has round connectors so I had to cut and solder the connectors from the old sigs. Instead of notching the bottom of the tail light I drilled another hole below the light bar to run the wiring. Running it under the tail light would have exposed more wire then I like. You can't see the holes unless you actually look under the sigs. I'm happy with it. Don't mind the bike it needs a good buffing and waxing.

Here's the connectors.

Here's the extra holes I drilled.

And here's the view

Very nice. Be sure that those holes won't wear into your wiring. Just one wrap of tape around the wires might prevent a short.

Yea they have pretty thick heat shrink on there and I made sure the wires are tight so they don't wiggle. I'm thinking about putting some clear silicone on the back side for a little extra holding strength!! We'll see!!

Nice job, Jaron!

I would like to advise you to use grommets in the fender holes. I pasted two types of them plus p/n's from the instruction sheets database into an new diagram for you (see attachment).

Don't forget to put some touch-up paint to the fender, bro!
