Hmmm, what to put here....?
Hey All,
Just picked up a nice used 2016 Slim. Previous owner did a lot of nice mods but left one head-scratcher. He relocated the ignition switch but left the hole in the dash & covered it with tape. So here's what I've got....
The hole is exactly 2 inches wide with a useable depth of about an inch. I was thinking something functional like an Oil temp gage, but was looking for mounting, wiring suggestions.

Well that's definitely different. Are the wires exposed behind it? I used to get crap about my Dyna from a coworker saying he could steal it in 2 minutes using a nickel to "hotwire" the contacts that were exposed behind the switch. I called BS on it but wasn't willing to let him fail by shorting everything out on my bike.

set of wire cutters, yes I guess someone could cut the wires - but then, you can
do that to any Iron year 2013 and older. The '14 up are 'CANbus' switches with
resistance values that the ECM is looking for - so harder to 'hot wire'....
Mine also has the HD factory 'security system', so I also have to have the
'fob' present for ignition to occur...
hth,
T.
