d. Align the clips so they face toward the
front of the LightBar (at right in this photo),
then tighten the nut and bolt securely.

The large serrated locking washer will
prevent the clip from rotating on the LightBar.
6. Fit the LightBar up underneath the fender.
Attach it to the crash bar using an M6x16
bolt, with a locking washer and a large flat
washer. LEAVE THE BOLT LOOSE
7. Mount the upper brackets as shown in
these next photos. Use M6x16 bolts, flat
washers, and nylon locknuts. The brackets
are mirror images of each other; it will be
apparent which one goes on which side. This
is the left side, front of bike to the left.
LEAVE THE BOLTS LOOSE FOR NOW !!!
8. The LightBar is designed with elongated
assembly holes so it can accommodate
variations between the crash bar and the
frame. Adjust the bar so it’s centered left-
and-right.
9. Wiggle the LightBar back and forth a bit so
that the brackets and hardware work out any
stress points.
10. Now go back and tighten all the nuts and
bolts. Use common sense and don’t over-
tighten. “Snug but gently firm” works for us.
Remember to tighten the screw in the middle
that holds the LightBar to the BMW crash bar.
Be careful that you don’t strip this screw –
torque to 6 ft-lbs (8 Nm)
11. If you plan to mount the BMW fog lights
you must reconfigure one of the metal
bushings in the fog light plastic tabs.
12. Use a penknife to gently pry ONE of the
bushings out of the inside of the plastic tab.
13. Replace the bushing so that it’s on the
outside of one of the tabs. In this position the
plastic tabs will easily fit over the fog light
mounting clip. It’s important that these tabs
are not stressed when they’re bolted onto the
clips. “Test fit” the fog light onto the mounting
clip and make any adjustments as needed.
The brackets go on TOP of the tabs
on the LightBar, not underneath
14. Slip the plastic spacers into the clips.
These spacers prevent the clips from bending
inward when you’re tightening the bolts that
hold the fog lights onto the clips.
15. Fit the BMW fog lights onto the clips, and
hold them in place with the screws that
originally held the lights onto the BMW bar.
16. Reconnect the wiring harness by pushing
the male fitting up into the socket.
17. Use the zip ties to secure the wiring
harness to the LightBar.
18. Tighten the screws that hold the fog
lights to the clips. Snug but firm.
This completes installation of the LightBar
and the BMW fog lights.
First remove the screw that holds the
crash bar to the frame, and replace it
with the bolt and nut we provide
