Use a 2.5mm hex key to remove the 4 M4 screws. Notice that the lenses I'm using are the hybrid ones.. They have 2 clear and 2 fluted lenses for a combination of spot and flood. The flutes have to be mounted vertically and on the bottom.

I decided to put the DataDim Controller in the plastic tool box that serves as the battery cover. I ran the light switch and light pod cables up under the left side of the tank into the area behind the left cowling.

Installing the Wiring Harness The DataDim module easily fits in the plastic tool box in front of the battery.

First I removed the fuse. I tucked the red and black wires and the fuse up over the top of the battery box and connected the red and black wires to the battery.

The connector with the 2 plug ends goes to the light pods. The thin white wire goes to the ignition on power source which I have already prepared up by the 12v accessory connector.

The electrical harness is in place and everything is still opened up so now is the time to test everything out. I put the 10A fuse back in the holder by the battery and turned on the bike.

Tie the wires up with cable ties so they're neat. I don't want anything to get in the way of putting the fairing back on. It turned out that the black and red wires from the Garmin GPS got in the way of putting the fairing back on. I had to tuck them under the gas tank on the right.

Securing the DataDim Module I don't want the DataDim module to be flopping around in the plastic battery cover so I'm sticking it in with Velcro.

Finish the Battery Cover I sealed all around the inside and outside of the hole in the box with silicone seal.

The wiring harness entering the battery cover kept the cover from seating flat against the battery box. The bottom left edge of the battery box is interfearing so I cut it away.
