HEATED GRIPS - HELP NEEDED
« on: March 30, 2012, 11:56:12 »
Hi Folks,

I’d like to fit heated grips to my Wee, and need some help.

Is there a socket that’s ignition linked already wired into the loom for fitting of heated grips?

If so, where is it, and what type of plug do I need to wire the heated grips into it.

Also what wire goes where?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Andy

Andy,

See the last post on this http://www.v-strom.co.uk/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=12219 topic.

That is what I did with my heated grips and it works great.

Get the 'horn connector' from eastern beaver, they do an extended version so you can get the connector somewhere dry...

Plus, the minimum order for postage means you may have to spend a few more ££ on toys!!

Hi, I needed one of the adapters so I have ordered one from the USA.
Thing is you have to order 3 to get your order over $20 and reduce the shipping so will hopefully have 2 for sale for approx £8 each + small postage charge if they arrive  :grin:

If you ordered from Eastern Beaver, your order is coming from a Canadian living and working in Japan. :neen:
