I used Diesel Demons mod this weekend !!
Ever sinceI saw it, it consumed me. I just LOVED Diesel Demon's idea of relocaing the heater plug outlet to the rear, so I did it this weekend.
I started by trying to find the hub part ... the part that you plug your cord into. This was actually harder than I thought it was going to be. I could find plenty of female hubs, but no males. I finally found one at an electrical supply house. I also picked up a box and a cover. Everything had to be modded as none of them are meant to go with each other. I used a 3 way 14 gauge wire for the run. I used a 3 way because I wanted an extra outlet for a battery charger as well as the heater cord. Again .. another Demon idea. I haven't gotten the charger yet, but the outlet is there waiting for it.
Here are the pics ... Thanks Demon for the idea !!!

RE: I used Diesel Demons mod this weekend !!
Too late ..
I used KILZ primer hopeing for the best, but as you can see it didn't hold up at all. It flaked right off when I went to tighten the wire hold down and screws.
Thanks for the tips though. I don't have a bead blaster and I have no clue where to get airplane paint ... that's for sure !!

Sand blasting will work too just messier.
Your local scooter shop will have a bead blast cabinet.
Any good marine supply should have zinc chromate primer. It is also used on outdrives.
The bead/sand blasting give a good satin finish for the primer to grip to.

Your a scooter guy.
Here are some pics of some my old scoots
79 FLHC 80cu shovel
Trike with a WR motor in it.
39 EL 61cu knuckle
These are the only pics I have of the 23 HDs I have owned over the years a fire took care of most my old pics.
