I am installing the factory light bar on my 08 America. The directions do no seem to sufficiently cover how to do the relocation from the handlebar mounted indicators to the ones mounted on the light bar. Can anyone provide some guidance?

It is part number A9838002. It comes with turn signal lights that mount below the auxiliary lamps. The existing indicators on the handlebars must be removed and rewired for the new location. The wiring is not as described in the instructions. http://www.pure-triumph.com/images/prod/Triumph-America-Auxiliary-Lamp-Kit-A9838002.jpg

Carl, Thats the Lightbar for the 2011-on America, there indicators are not handlebar mounted.
Put a photo up when you have fitted them I think they look better that the older type.

I have it installed. Ended up tracing wires and splicing and soldering in the headlight bowl to get the indicator lights wired. will post photos once the bike is back together, I have a couple other projects with it to finish.
The bar mounted indicators (originals) are 21 watt bulbs where the light bar bulbs are smaller and only 10 watt. Therefore, the flasher goes into hyper mode and blinks too fast now. So next obstacle is to try to match the bulbs to the flasher or flasher to the bulbs. Still could use some input!

Thanks Ryk! Here is what I came up with by researching forums: The CF13GL-02 is plug n play across the Triumph range and works from 20mA to 20A - this thing will flash even the lowest current LED turns - yet would even be able to flash your headlights if you so desired i.e. it will work for you OEM incandescents or LED signals. Here is the link: http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-bin/s...%2Fflashers.htmI ordered one today...

the flasher relay (CF13GL-02) arrived today, just took 3 days to get it. Plugged in and works great. Just under $16 for flasher and shipping.

Looks good! When I put mine on I had to add a couple of washers to the driving light brackets. How's the flasher working?

The brackets went on fine, no washers needed in my case. And the flasher is working great.
