Kuryakyn curved license plate frame
I have a 07 street glide and I am having a hard time getting to the bolts to take the light bracket off. Has anyone else had this problem ? I set up on a jack thing the tire would move enought to be able to reach the bolts but it didn't help. Do I need to find someone with smaller hands?

Now you can reach through the hole in the fender to remove the bolts holding the license plate holder on.

Many have commented on this job. Some have gone so far as to remove the taillight and worked through the whole in the fender. A search on the subject will reveal several stories. There were also issues with the first generation of the bracket with breaking too.
Good Luck

I just installed it on my 07 FLHX, What a Pain, I used a long handle flex head ratchet and had to jamb the flex head straight, One click at a time to get the bolts out, The 2 small bolts that hold the bracket onto the light bar on the new piece didn't quite line up so I had to drill the bracket holes a bit bigger.I had my girlfriend start the bolts inside the fender as my big fat hands did not fit to well between the fender and tire.I almost let the air out of the tire but thank god I changed my mind on that thought! about 3 hours later it was done!!I changed the Light Bar on my 02 Roadking and had no problem at all. Why did I sell it????

I did it about two weeks ago and it was a major pain in the ***. I had the exact problems as Streetglide 53. One click at a time with a flex ratchet....and had to grind down the bracket to make the bolt holes line up. I got so mad that I stood up....kicked the s**t out of my John Deere Gator and hurt my foot. I emailed Kuryakyn and told them that the bolt holes didn't line up.

It's really not hard at all, but the best approach is to remove the tail light. Pull the two lens screws, two larger screws holding the light assembly to the fender, remove the 3-4 connectors, then pull the lens out of the fender. The large hole created gives you ample room to remove the two bolts for the license frame. Give yourself 30 min. for the whole job.
