I'm planning on powering my Garmin to the electrical connectors that are behind the headlight (for heated grips) on my '15 Gunner. Has anyone done that before? What kind of connectors are used?

Thanks,
Steve

Update...........I had some time today, so I took a look myself. Thru trial and error, I found a power source that uses blade connectors. So if anyone is also looking to power a device, this looks to be an easier way compared to running wires all the way back to the battery.

Good find. I'll bet your Gunner buds would like to see a picture or two.

Thanks. I'll take some pics tomorrow when I perform the permanent hookup.

The two black connectors on the bottom of the pic are the ones that I used to tap into.

And you say that connector is behind the headlight?

Yes it is.

Yeah when I was messing around with the victoryhid.com kit I was surprised how many unused connectors are stuffed into that headlight assembly.

Hi,
Good question.
I see a green and a white. I believe I connected the power to the green and the neutral to the white. Any other questions, please let me know.

In france, I controle it, One connector has à Black cable (neutral) and another has a Green/Black cable(12v)
My zumo 660 GARMIN is connected and cuts with the key

Thanks

Those are the same connections you use for the heated hand grips.
