So it's all done, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone unless you have patience. The reason why is because there instructions are not very clear nor are the pictures, but thanks to my buddies on here it was much clearer!!!!
Cutting is involved lol
In the end it looks really good, I like it. Don't plan on painting it, I think it looks good just stainless.
The key was a pain, had to drill the notch out a lil but more, the key mechanism would not go through

Glad you got it together. First time I've heard of having to drill anything on the actual kit itself. Mine went together like a perfect puzzle. ;-)
In another thread about the CWFE, I remarked about the signal brackets. The kit comes w/ the larger brackets that are designed for the original factory signals or aftermarket smaller sigs. However, I called CW & asked if they had smaller brackets, which they do. I got them & installed them on my kit for my aftermarket signals. You can see the smaller signal brackets on my CW. I'm now using much smaller LED signals w/ those smaller brackets.

So you have the hole where the key mechanism goes, in the hole there's like a slight notch there where on the key mechanism there is a piece on the side of it, the notches are suppose to match up. Well on the plate the notch was circular, on the key it was square. I hope that makes sense.

Looking at your other upgrade parts... I would also suggest the HotBodies LED front signals. They fit right into the detent of the bike's fairing. At their price-point they are good quality signals. Also, they can be wired to use as 2-wire-signal only or 3-wire signal & running lights.

How-to here on forum to wire up as running lights as well...
