Default Flush Mount Signal Install help

Hi Everyone,

I bought these flush mount signal's on ebay spur of the moment. Wondering if anyone has a suggestion on how to secure them. The OEM signals have a bolt on the back, these new signal's do not have a bolt or nut connection.

These are going on a 2001 929rr Erion.

the big plastic nut on the back holds it to the fairing.

take the nut off, put the assembly through the hole, screw on the nut.

wire it up....

Depends if the (huge) nylon nut fit between...in the cavity of the outside fairing and inner.

Wow, i was dense on this one. You're certainly correct, the washer screws right off. Problem solved with securing to fairing.

Thanks very much.

they fit. stealthcbr929 has the same ones. i went with the small ones, not the mini. the faring hole is oval and pretty big. my small ones barely cover it....dont know how he got the minis to cover it. he has aftermarket fairings, so he may have smaller cut outs.

i went with the 2 wire, 194 bulb, turn only. incandescent running lights get too hot.
