This is what I plan on going with from Custom Dynamics with the caliper mounts being chrome. Hopefully sometime this year. Along with an LED headlight.

LMAO Yeah I know huh? I have been planning on them falling off for a while now. I have to put new fishing line on all of my rods and reels when I get home from offshore. Looks like a good time for that old fishing line to get "tangled up in a yellow shiny thing causing it to fall off".

In case anyone is interested, here is what was used for this setup:

73396-10A: Aux, lamps led 4 inch
69227-04A: custom passing lamp bracket kit
69230-04:   Amber t/s kit for custom aux
69235-04:   hc-hardware kit
73191-96 (8 of those): hc-receptacle, contact, 20-1
69200897: kit-wire harness, led hdlamp
68355-05: wire harness (2 of those)
68331-02: nest ring passing/pursuit lamp
68725-62A: (2 of those) ring, bezedl, lamp

Total of around $800 in parts + 380 labor.

Looks even better than in the picture.

Hope it helps...

To adjust these lamps you need a slotted 7/16th socket. I went to the MOCO and was told the wait was "probably 3-4 weeks, or more." WTH?? Tought of cuttin up a socket but a friend said that by doing so you weaken the socket making it worthless fro the task since you need to have some torque to tighten the mess up. Any thoughts or other than Snap-on (supposedly they have "em) any place you can get this little gem? Thanks.  :bananarock:

A notched socket will work just fine.  Have home made a couple.  Works fine.

Just for info, I used the passing lamps off a CUSE & it took a 9/16 socket  :nixweiss:. I did cut a 'V' notch with a dremel.

Here's a question - why is it that both sets of wires (passing lamps and turns (if mounted)) can be hidden on an Ultra but not a Road King?  I went into my local HD dealer to pick up a part order, and saw a '14 CVO Ultra that caught my "just looking" interest.  I specifically started looking at the aux lighting brackets to see where they put the wires, and to my surprise, I saw none.  I looked at it for another minute, and went back to the parts counter to pick up my order.  On the way back towards the front, I passed several other regular Ultras that had the brackets with both passing and turns, and all of their wires were hidden too.  So, I'm wondering how they did it.  I could not get both the passing lamp and turn signal wires through the second half of that hole that runs through the body of the bracket.  By looking at others here that have them on their Kings, that seems to be the norm.  I don't necessarily want to tear mine apart, but if there was a way to get both wires in that hole so that the wires could have been hidden better I'll probably rip out what's left of my hair.   ???

The mounting brackets on the Ultra are slightly larger and the wire tunnel was made to take all the wires. I ordered passing lamps for an Ultra only because I had the parts book for my '09 CUSE. Lucky move as I had no idea they were different.

I'm surprised they are different. I thought the brackets were for all touring models. But you're right, looking closely I can see the Ultra brackets are different.  I think I finally realize that all Ultras come with those brackets, while the custom auxiliary brackets are something that can be used for several different models. Hindsight is always 20/20, because if I knew then what I know now I would have ordered the Ultra brackets instead.

QUESTION....
I was just wondering... what if I only wanted the aux lights and not the turn signals? Would it work to use this kit and just omit the turn lamps? I saw in a photo that there is a threaded stud on the bottom of each bracket, but maybe this could simply be removed?
