To those of you that have done this, is there enough stock wiring from the turn signals once I take the wire cover off to reach the extensions or was there suppose to be additional wiring included in the kit?

Thanks

Mine didn't include any additional wiring and noticed the same problem with slack. I just opted not to use it; besides, I didn't like the way it looked with it on. If you choose to do what I did, I'd suggest making sure that the rack is centered before tightening the bolts; you should still end up with about half an inch of space between the turn signals and luggage.

I second that, I didn't use the extensions with the fehling rack. Works fine without.

Thanks guys. Yeah thats how I had it for awhile but with weight in the bags the left one would just rub the turn signal. I then put on the cross brace but the left turn signal sits right above the brace. May just try and readjust the rack this weekend and see how far the wires really go.
