INSTALLATION
NOTE
Perform the following tasks on one side of the motorcycle before proceeding to the opposite side. To keep fender in alignment, the front mounting point will be mounted first.
Install Front Mounting Point
  1. See Figure 4. Remove bolt from location "A" on the fender support (A). This will be the location for the front mounting point. On FXD and FXDL models, the rear mounting point will mount at the rear hole on the fender support bracket along with the turn signal as shown. FXDWG will mount in the second to the last hole as shown.
  2. NOTE
    Make sure you use the coarse (3/8-16) threaded nut in the next step. Attempting to install the fine (3/8-24) threaded nut on bolt (1) will damage threads on both nut and bolt.
  3. Models with rigid sideplates: Insert the 3-1/4 in. bolt (1) through the washer (3), saddlebag and spacer (2) into the fender. Then install the washer (8) and locknut (11) on the inside of the fender. Tighten bolt until snug.
  4. NOTE
    If this kit is used with detachable sideplates, replace the spacers provided in this kit ( Figure 4 , Item 2) with detachable mounting points.
  5. Models without rigid sideplates: Insert the 3 in. bolt (13) through the washer (3), saddlebag and spacer (2) into the fender. Then install the washer (8) and locknut (14) on the inside of the fender. Tighten bolt until snug.

WARNING
To prevent accidental vehicle start-up, which could cause death or serious injury, disconnect battery cables (negative (-) cable first) before proceeding. (00307a)
WARNING
Disconnect negative (-) battery cable first. If positive (+) cable should contact ground with negative (-) cable connected, the resulting sparks can cause a battery explosion, which could result in death or serious injury. (00049a)
2. Disconnect battery cables, negative (-) cable first.
3. See Figure 1. Remove lens (1) from rear turn signal housing (2). Remove bulb (3) from directional housing socket.
NOTE
For FXD and FXDL models, rear mounting point will mount at the rear hole on fender support bracket. FXDWG will mount in the second to last hole.
4. For 1996-1998 models: Trace turn signal wires routing along underside of rear fender. Remove cable strap located on topside of rear fender near the rubber grommet. Bend internal fender clips outward. Do not remove wires from the clips. Gently pull all excess wire rearward along underside of fender and into turn signal housing to allow for additional length of wire within turn signal housing. Bend fender clips back into place. For 1999-2001 models: Trace turn signal wires routing along underside of rear fender to the tail light. Remove wires from the connector. Bend internal fender clips outward. Do not remove wires from the clips. Gently pull all excess wire rearward along underside of fender and into tail light to allow for additional length of wire within tail light. Bend fender clips back into place.
5. For 1996-1998 models: Cut wires within turn signal housing about 3 in. away from point where wires connect to the bottom of the bulb socket. From underside of fender, withdraw end of wires that are within turn signal housing support ( Figure 1 , Item 4) into the inner fender area.

Insert rear turn signal stalk through rear mounting hole in rear fender support, and rear fender.
12. Install flat washer (8) and locknut (10) onto turn signal stalk on inside of rear fender. Tighten finger tight.

Figure 2. Sealed Butt Splice Connectors
2. See Figure 2. Insert turn signal wires prepared in Step 1 into opposite ends of a butt splice connector. Connect black to black and violet/brown to violet/brown.
3. Match the color of the butt splice connector with the color of the crimp cavity of the crimping tool. Using a Packard Crimping Tool, crimp wires into the connector.
WARNING
Be sure to follow manufacturer's instructions when using the UltraTorch UT-100 or any other radiant heating device. Failure to follow manufacturer's instructions can cause a fire, which could result in death or serious injury. (00335a)
  • Always keep hands away from tool tip area and heat shrink attachment.
  • Avoid directing the heat toward any fuel system component. Extreme heat can cause fuel ignition/explosion.
  • Avoid directing heat toward any electrical system component other than the connectors on which heat shrink work is being performed.
  • Be sure to turn the "ON/OFF" switch to the "OFF" position after use.
4. See Figure 2. Using the Ultra-Torch, Heat Gun with Heat Shield Attachment, or other suitable radiant heating device, heat the crimped splice to encapsulate the butt splice connection. Apply heat from the center of the crimp out to each end until the meltable sealant exudes out of both ends of the connector.
5. Reinstall bulb into turn signal housing socket. Reinstall lens to turn signal housing.
6. Center the reflector on lower center of bag and mark hole location.
