Read this manual before installing and using product. BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION
1. Place vehicle in a safe work environment with enough space to complete the installation without distractions.
2. Set parking brake. (Only applicable for vehicles with factory equipped parking brakes.)
3. Disconnect negative battery terminal.
BRACKET INSTRUCTIONS
DISCONNECT NEGATIVE BATTERY LEAD BEFORE LIGHT KIT HARNESS AND SWITCH INSTALLATION. READ INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY, INVENTORY HARDWARE AND FAMILIARIZE YOURSELF WITH EACH PIECE AND IT’S ASSOCIATED USE BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION.
Step 1 — Locate ‘mold circle’ indentation on each side fairing panel (Pic 1). With panel mounted on bike, this indentation is center, at rear inside panel edge, and faces inside. Temporarily install bracket as shown in (Pic 2), align bottom bracket hole over indentation and mark for hole. Remove brackets at this time.
Step 2 — Remove fairing body side panels. Four screws per side required for removal, see owners manual. Drill a 3/8” hole at mark. If harness kit has not been installed, do not re-install left side panel until finished unless you remove tank to install harness. Removal of the tank is the best option to route harness from battery area to front of the bike.
Step 3 — As required, re-install fairing body side panels. Do not re-install the top factory inner panel Torx Screw yet, as you will re-use this screw to secure the top light bracket mounting hole to the fairing panel.
Step 4 — Using 10/32x1/2 screws and black shoulder washers from Hardware package, secure lights to PIAA Ezy-MountŠ¾ brackets (See Pics 3 & 4). Right side bracket is stamped ‘EZY-MOUNT’. See note below for Powersports lights. Due to close proximity of the light body to fairing side panel, access to the vertical adjustment screw on the panel side of the light will not be possible after installation. To prepare for this; before installing bracket/light assembly to panel, make sure this screw is tightened so that you can barely move the light body. After bracket is installed, final vertical adjustment can be secured with the inside screw. Torque on this screw is adequate to hold vertical adjustment, and the screw that faces the panel will not come loose.
NOTE: WHEN INSTALLING POWERSPORTS LIGHTS, YOU MUST INSERT THE SHOULDER ADAPTER WASHER INTO THE LIGHT FOOT, BEFORE INSERTING SCREW TO SECURE LIGHT FOOT TO BRACKET. THIS ADAPTER CENTERS LIGHT FOOT OVER PEMNUT (TIGHTEN THIS SCREW SECURELY).
Step 5 — Insert well nut into previously drilled 3/8” hole. Place bracket assembly against fairing, aligning top hole with the top fairing mounting position; re-install the factory Torx screw at this location. Adjust as necessary and install the second supplied SS 10/32 x 5/8 Torx screw thru the lower bracket mounting hole to the well nut. With constant pressure on the screw, tighten securely. Constant pressure ensures that the rear expandable section of the well nut captures the back of the plastic inner panel as you tighten the screw. Future removal of fairing panels is now possible with light assembly installed (utilizing the bottom bracket mounting screw), thus re-alignment of lights is not required after normal maintenance.
