The only thing I'm aware of are results photos. As I recall, the installation instructions that comes with all that you mentioned are really well documented and that should work well for you. I did see one video, come to think of it, on installing this--- http://www.kewlmetalstore.com/product_info.php?products_id=633 . You may want to look at my page on all of the light mods I've done. You might get some good ideas, and if nothing else build your confidence that most anyone can do it!!

I kind of thought that the instructions that came with them pretty much covered the installation pretty well... :shocked:
Maybe you should give him a call if you've got any questions.
Good Luck and we can't wait to see your results! :thumbup:

Install Inst.

Thanks Phil and BOB. I downloaded several PDF instructions from the website where I ordered them from. I also wondered how properly jack the bike and where to set the jack stands. Thanks

 

[Bob Denman]

Now I am absolutely NOT an expert wrench here... pps:
But it seems to me that those items could pretty much be nailed in place without jacking the bike up.
The mudflaps can always be removed for installation; as can the GIVIs...
Let us know how your project looks! :thumbup:

Fender Tips Kit

Not very happy, I received the tips kit for an RT and I ordered one for an RS. Pannels are all torn off, was gonna install today so I could get it back together for this weekend :banghead::cus::cus::cus::banghead: Is there a difference?

 

[Bob Denman]

If that's just for replacing the bulbs out on the front of the fender; I believe that they are all the same...

tips kit

This is a harness that is used for brightsides and mud flap lights, so they are running and turning both.
It came with replacement bulps also....

I think that you may have to give Reggy a call... :shocked:

 

[Arr MiHardies]

I don't think any of these products came from Reggy or TricLED. I think they came from custom dynamics/esi

Re: Tric led lights/givi saddle bag

If Positaps were not supplied, you can still splice the connector in your picture on the cardboard into the existing harness. I'm guessing the instructions show the wire colors that go together? Doing the actual splice IS easier with the Positaps, but you can still do it by doing these steps...

1. Carefully separate out the harness wire that you want to deal with. The one in your hand.
2. Carefully skin back some of the insulation, about 1/8" on one wire.
3. Wrap a little of the matching wire from the new connector around the bare spot from step 2.
4. IF you happen to know how to solder, solder that connection so it is strong. If not, next best thing... Make sure it is wrapped REALLY tight on the subject harness wire.
5. Using about 4" of black electrical tape, TIGHTLY wrap the connection around the bare wires like your life depends on it!
6. After you do this for all needed wires, LIGHTLY wrap black tape around all of your work. Step 5 is to keep the connection stable and waterproof and electrically sound. This step is just to keep the overall work stable.

Hope that helps.

If the posi-taps were not included, you have only a few choices. Buy some form a local suplier (some NAPA stores carry them), buy some mail order, or phone ESI where you purchased them and have them make it right. I'd phone Evan at ESI first, but you may prefer another option.

I second that! Sorry to hear about the mixup and hope you get everything sorted out.

What is the relationship between Custom Dynamics and ESI? They seem to sell the exact same products.

 

[Arr MiHardies]

I couldn't tell you their relationship, as I don't know.

posi-taps

ESI originally developed, produced, and sold the products. Evan then sold to Custom Dynamics, so he could concentrate on the development aspect. He retained the rights to market the products to SpyderLovers because he loves us. Same fine products...two fine vendors.
