I did NOT remove the outer fairing... just turn the bars to left and you will see a hd hook with a loom in it... open the hook and just pull out the loom.... connect the jump loom in betwen and your good to go.... if you can't see or reach the loom you may have to remove the two screws on the cover which gives you a little more room even with the ignition switch not removed.... Good luck, Jax

Just installed mine last night.  Had the same "wiring" issue so thanks for the info about correcting the wires.  Saved me a lot of headache and time.  Ha anyone had to adjust their headlight after the install?  I have not had a chance to ride with the new lights yet so I don't know how they look yet but curious if any adjustment (and what the proper aiming technique is) is necessary.

Just used this link for Discount Fleet Supply and entered coupon code above and received 5% discount on there three light set of Phase7 headlight and aux lights. Total cost was $389.49 with free shipping and no sales tax. Site shows price of the set at $409.99, coupon took off $20.50. Was happy but kind of surprised the code still worked. Just in case I'm not the last guy to upgrade my lights!lol

Has anyone compared the truck light LED's to the Harley ones as far as brightness and lighting up the road? Thanks.

Here are a couple of reviews of LED lights. I'm getting the Phase 7 led for my old roadking.

Glad to hear it! All my bikes will have LED lighting from now on.
All the lights on my bike are now converted. Folks that have been riding with me for a while say it really stands out compared to before. Works for me.

A while back I received and installed Truck Lite Phase 7 LED headlight and passing lights from Discount Fleet Supply. There are plenty of posts about their quality and about installation. I experienced a problem I have not seen on the Forum. The left passing lights did not work. The original light worked fine in the same plug.

I contacted Discount Fleet Supply and explained. They sent out a replacement, no questions asked. They did mention that mine was the first light that anyone had problems with.

I received and installed the replacement. It failed to work. I plugged it into the right side and it worked. I plugged the right side bulb in the left plug. It did not work.

So the left plug is obviously the problem but the stock light worked fine. Then it dawned on me. The stock bulb does not care about the polarity of the plug. But LED's are different technology and maybe they do care about polarity. Then I finally noticed that the ground pin in the plug did match the ground pin from the light. I reversed the pins in the plug and all is good.

The moral of the story is, if you trouble with LED installation do not assume MOCO configures their plugs correctly.
I did the same dang thing with the right Passing Lamp.  After getting the 2nd one it would not work then it dawned on me to check the  simple + and - and it was reversed!  :oops:
