Default hotbodies led turn signals install

Ok so I've searched and there's really been no solid answer on how the heck to install these damned things. I see "it's easy, keep the screws in order, remove the front and side fairings, remove the front fairing, remove the side fairings, it takes a long time" but no one really says HOW to remove the fairings. It looks like to remove the front I need to remove the mirrors too? I took pics of the screws that I've already removed are there any other ones? Please help I'd like to try to get these in tonight. =/

Mike

Ok taking the mirrors off worked. So I unscrewed both the stock signals and am I just supposed to cut the wire now? kinda freaks me out I'm not going to until someone says to. lol That stupid harness was a pain in the butt to get off too!

I looked at those on ebay and at the hotbodies site both places told me I needed to install resistors if I wanted the blinkers to pulse at a normal rate. If you dont have these they will blink fast.

Ok finally finished!!!! My first post was around midnight that's about when i started now its 143 and I finished about 10min ago. An hour and a half not bad for not knowing what the heck I'm doing! Was easier than I thought I was just afraid of breaking something. Hardest part was getting the dmaned fairing back ON the bike! It kept hitting crap and gettin stuck and was pissing me off. Anyway I'll do like a write up thing tomorrow I took a bunch of pics I hope I didnt leav any part out. Right now Im jsut dead tired and have to be up in 4 hours to get ready for work =(

***edit
yes btw f4ido they do blink fast but i really dont care atm

All you have to do is take our the screws on the side and pull the fairing back a bit while still on the bike. Takes about 2 min
