Used the connectors from the supplied kit and then wrapped them up in electrical tape. One thing I did in order to make sure everything worked correctly, I hooked up one light at a time then tested it. Once it passed, I then completey wrapped it up. This ensures that all wires are secure and you have the left hooked up to the left etc..... (in reply to dizzie56) Post #: 3

You definitely need to cut wires from the stock fender and connect them to the kit. The only thing that drove me nuts was how to use the friggin pink connectors ??? I stripped the wires and twisted the copper together with my fingers...and then wrapped in electrical tape. Yeah I thought it was going to be a 45 minute job...but took me 3 hours ....

That's odd CW would not do the same with their 1000RR kits _____________________________ Southern Illinois > Atlanta, GA (in reply to Socrates) Post #: 5

CW kits aren't exactly the cheapest on the market Off note here but I hear the bike scene in Clearwater is pretty nice. I'm in Lakeland right now on vacation. _____________________________ Southern Illinois > Atlanta, GA (in reply to dizzie56) Post #: 7

The only problem is that the next morning i guess the right taillight blew and it caused a short and blew a fuse while i was doin 90 over a bridge so all my gauges turned off at the same time. Now i cant find the damn right size bulb to fix the problem. Im freakin pissed. There is no way it should have blown already! (in reply to kryptonite_cycle) Post #: 9

I had mine for a month when the license plate light died. I called Comp Werkes and they sent me a new one, no questions asked. But now I have to take it all apart and re-splice the stock connector. _____________________________ 2007 CBR600RR - For Track 2006 CBR1000RR - For Sale Yoshimura RS-5 Carbon Comp Werkes Fender Eliminator Clear Alternatives Taillight VFX Flash Eq Proton Flushmounts Lightech Frame Sliders (in reply to CBRage1000rr) Post #: 11

I looked all over for a match. I ended up getting a bulb a bit smaller to get me through. I ordered replacement bulbs from "Lockhart Phillips." Just go to thier website and order the replacement bulbs for the "flush mount V(5)" series. Hope that helps you out if you havent fixed it already (in reply to dizzie56) Post #: 12

RE: Comp Werks fender eliminator - 8/14/2006 4:46:21 AM    silentsamurai Posts: 145 Joined: 5/25/2006 Status: offline Dizzie. Please be more specific. Acutally. All of you should be more specific. Competition werkes sell quite a few different models and most are pretty easy. Plug and play as said above. I have this kit here. You dont have to cut anything. Everything is fit for OEM wiring and placement. Even has a hole you stick the OEM license plate light into and your good to go. Post what model of CWFE you are getting and maybe more people would have better / quicker soultions. Just my 2 cents. Cheers.

For those who splice n cut check this out... http://www.targa-acc.com/main_powersearch_nf.html I did not use these b-cuz I found them after I installed… I had a huge problem wit the turn signal bulbs overheating n melting. I then went wit a clear alternatives integrated brake/signal but that didn’t work b-cuz of the 3 wire front turners and my hot bodies signals. I couldn’t get the running lights n the signals working up front n still have brake lights n signal in back. I ended up using the stock brake light and tear drop LEDs for signals in back. Everything works… _____________________________ I luv it wen a plan comes 2gether... (in reply to silentsamurai) Post #: 15
