So I had my break-in service today and schedule the Motobozzo lights to be installed as well. I sent a PDF of the instructions prior to the maintenance so they could review them.
After about 2 hours the tech comes out and tells me that since the instructions are to splice into the wiring harness plug from the light, it could void my warranty and probably would if there were electrical issues. The reason I had scheduled them to do the work was so the work would be warrantied
The only method they had to splice the wires was to use the inline trailer type plastic connecters that have the little metal piece that splices the wires. So I had him leave the battery connection unhooked and the wires to the headlight wrapped up. Cost of this work $200
I guess I will be finishing the installation myself. I going to order some Posi Taps and have some questions. Hopefully someone can help.
Is the wire 18 gauge? I want to make sure I order the correct taps. Also where have others tapped into the wires. On the wires outside of the rubber boot that covers the connector to the lamp or inside of the boot (there doesn't appear to be much room). I assume if you plug the green wire vs the purple wire into the relay the lights will be off at start up. Is that true?
Thanks
