    Hiboy Headlight Conduits

     



    I bought a set of Mr Roadster headlight conduits from Speedway, and they are being posted back today. The male/male connection at the headlight end was going to be cumbersome, the ID is only about 1/4" to 5/16", and the machined end pieces simply slip over the stainless braid. The slip joint is not a big deal, but added to my discontent with the product so I'll spend $10 to return a $35 pair of conduits. I did find a set of male/female conduits at Bob Drakes called Wire Worms. I have a message in to them to see what the ID is on theirs to be sure it will pass five or six wires. Bob is very proud of his parts - $60 for the pair. So far I have not found a 1/2" male/female conduit anywhere else. Pictures of both Mr Roadster (left) & Wire Worms (right) are attached below. Is anyone aware of another alternative that gives a clean joint at the hollow headlight mounting bolt, capable of five to six conductors?

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
