Headlight bucket 11 Months ago  
I am in the process of gathering parts for a road glide fairing on my 08. I am wanting on Friday to take off my headlight, light bar and bolt the fairing on to see haw to goes before having it painted. A mock up if you will. Will I be able to unplug all that stuff is so is the plugs in the bucket? I am wanting to put it back together after I mock it up so I can ride while it's being painted. Thanks

Yes, the plugs are readily accessible in the bucket.

Re:Headlight bucket 10 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
I just took a minute to take apart the headlight bucket today. I see all the plugs I assume it will be easy to figure out what's what . My question can I get the same plug that's on my blinker now to use on my new blinkers? I don't want to cut if possible because I would like to sell the light bar.
