Day 3, went to local dealer and they installed the Tech Pack and CC.
I bought the switch and asked them to install the software and I'd do the switch myself (I hate paying people to do stuff I can do).
They said sure, took my $1100 and an hour or so later, off I went.
They told me CC light would blink because it doesn't have the multiswitch with the CC installed yet (assuming the blinking would stop once it was).
So I installed the switch and still blinky so need to go back and have them take a look, maybe reload the CC software?
I should have documented the switch install...
It's a little fiddly but pretty simple.
Since your going to lose your headlight elevation adjustment, point the bike at a wall or garage door and mark the cutoff so you can put it back in the same place.
Remove headlight (loosen 2 lower bolts, unscrew top adjustment screw, rotate forward, disconnect connector, remove lower bolts, remove headlight assembly)
Remove cover, 2 lower bolts, a center bold an upward facing bolt and one on each side near fork tubes.
You need to bend the turn signal stalks back slightly to release the top corners of the cover.
Once removed, cut the wire tie holding the stock harness in place. Disconnect connectors.
Remove 2 bolts at the top of the plastic base (near TFT).
Pull forward and lift up and the back half of the bracket comes loose, this will give you room to pull the connectors through the slot.
Unscrew switch assembly (2 JIS screws or maybe they're #1 phillips) and one Torx, remove.
Install new assembly and reverse the procedure.
The new assembly has an additional 4 conductor connector that connects to a plug that has plug cover -you'll see it. Tie stuff back down with wire ties (on the throttle side there's a slot to run the wire tie).
You really need to stuff the new harness into the base so the cover goes on cleanly.
I couldn't find a great place to put the new 4 conductor plug but it all went back together pretty well.
If the dealer says they charge an hour for this, that wouldn't be unreasonable.
Will report back after I go back to the dealer.
