    Fix it with some Scotch tape and let the next owner try to figure out why the electrical keeps cutting out.;)

    I figured mine would be a mess on my 83 750 just from the age i guess all the voltage and amps that go thru them weaken the tangs. Luckily mine are just like new but the bike only has 3400 miles. 1 less thing to worry about getting mine ready for spring.

    It's gonna be HELLA tall. Len has slimmer ones. Might want to re-think.

    Or you could go all old-school and replace the broken clips with Radio Shack parts and keep the glass fuses.

    works well. you where right BF it is about 1/8 too tall but I worked it out with a slight relocation from center. It got dark and my wiring isnt so pretty because I was working by phone light. I plan on spending some time doing it awesome in the near future. But I can tell you that electricaly the bike is night and day. The headlight barely dims now when the aux light and high beam is activated. The starter button almsost starts the bike on thought of pressing it.
