I'm talking about the bulb holder. I'm having a time of it trying to figure out the best way to install a new assembly into the fairing. I found that the rubber stalk was busted on my right front turn signal this morning Currently I have what was left of the rubber in the fairing pushed out and a new stalk installed on my oe right front turn signal. The problem I'm having is trying to figure out if it is worth removing the fairing where this rubber piece attaches to. It would be nice if I had it off the bike and it would make installing the metal holder plate to the asssembly/fairing much easier, but it is looking like I need a pair of smaller hands to get at a fastener up inside the fairing What I'd like to klnow is if someone here on this list has removed the fairing yet and could offer some insight into removing the fairing? I have the factory 08' manual and see all of the fasteners that need to be removed but getting at a fastener on the inside of the fairing near the front is a beotch with my ham fist sized hands* Did you remove just the one side rather than the whole upper front fairing? FWIW, this is the second rubber turn signal stalk that has broke on my 08' since last November (left rear failed first). This rubber stalk is a horrible design, it just doesn't hold up Perhaps the aftermarket has a better front turn signal and attachment design for the 08' KLR but in the meantime I want to work with the oe crap (I already have) TIA Jake Reddick Fla. *I recall an old saying...When better JAP bikes are built, they will be built with little JAP hands
