    Does anyone know of a good set of front blinker relocation brackets that will fit a 06 Wide Glide. I have just put apes on and had to relocate the blinkers. I tried the ones that wrap around the folks and they are too chunky. At the moment i have the HD stem type ones on there but they stick way to far out and look like shit. I want to keep the stock blinkers on. Any one know of a shorter stem type out there or will i have to get some made up.

    What about the genuine part:

    68564-06 Turn Signal Relocation Kit

    Styled to blend with the lower triple clamp. This chrome-plated Turn Signal Relocation Kit moves the Original Equipment bullet-style turn signals from the handlebar to the front fork for a clean, streamlined look. Kit includes left and right mounting stalk and all required hardware. Fits '06-'07 Dyna® models (except FXDSE/2).

    Those are the ones i got and they are ugly as shit i like the way they attach to the lower triple tree but they are just way to long. I just wish i had the tools and stuff at home to make my own brackets. I asked the guy who fitted them if they could be cut down so they are shorter but you could still use them but he said no.

    I've got the long ones on my softail and must admit they are a bit long. Dunno why he would have said you couldn't shorten them. There's a lot of space along that stem before you get to the bolt that secures the light unit on. You'd have to re chrome them though. I've got used to mine and now don't have to worry about the indicator hitting the tank. I've got street slammer bars on.

    I didn't like any of the relocation ideas for the stock lights, so went with some aftermarket jobbies

    yeah got a bit pissed with the ones i had put on, they are way too long but i'm kind used to them now. might try and source something different another time, they are still way better than hanging off the bars.

    Don't know how long the ones you have are, but the stems on the stock ones on my 09 Nightrain are only about 1 inch and don't look too bad IMO.

    Those look great but because i use my bike for daily commuting to and from work, i need something a bit more visable...........hell half the dumb shit drivers in Sydney can't see ya normal turn signals. I looked at the ones in the mirrors as well but didn't find any i liked.

    Wrap arounds look great, there must be a law for how far apart they need to be tho , would it meet that? doubtful even on a wide front end
