When you take off the outer fairing cap and you are looking inside, look to the back of where your accessory switch would be and to where the back of you spot light switch would be. Then look for the same color wire that is shown in the diagram. Cut the yellow wire where it goes to the headlight connector and tape off the stub. Take the remaining end of the wire that you cut and tie it to the orange/red wire from the accessory switch

I found it easier to see after I removed the radio!

Is this the proceedure to make the passing lamps stay on when the high beem is on? If so, will the pictures and diagram above be the same for a '05 rk custom? And I am assuming that I can get to this by just going through the head light nachelle? Is this a correct assumption?

Redneck,

I noticed that you have your HD service manual laying open to the schematics in the background of your two pictures. Can you tell me what plug number is assigned to the plug your doing the modifications to?

Thanks...

Lil Trucker, there's only one plug involved on this mod - no way ta make a mistake. It's the one ya hafta disconnect to remove the inner panel with the switches on it.
