It will fit, go to the fuel pack website and they have a very detailed video on installing it on a sportster it helped me out a lot, I had the laptop right next to me as I was doing it. Just take your time and try to make everything flush. That video can explain everything way better than me.

You're gonna have to move some wires around and shove it up in there, but it will fit!

I think I got mine to fit in the exhaust side right under the frame rail.

The ECU module will not fit above the battery...but it will under the seat. Just keep adjusting wires to make room for it and cram it in there. The hard part is getting the seat back on. Keep working, push it down hard and feel the relief of success. Patience, patience, patience (and beer!).

Don't give up- it WILL work!

I installed mine.
I pulled everything except the digital part back down to where the battery goes and shoved the wires and the clamps up into the part where the frame y's off and the only thing that I pulled up through was digital part which i have under the seat.

It is very cramped but will fit. Be patience.

I placed the actual fuel pack module under the left side cover attached to the battery hold down strap, thats what is recommended in the instructions. then placed the wires between where the frame Y's off.
