Has anyone wired in oxford heated grips to the original wiring and switch on a hex? Price of a new heated grip isnt very viable and awaiting the other side to fail this may be a cheaper and better option
Iv seen a few people repairing them but seem to get continuous faults and having to repair again. For 30 quid a set of grips it might be worth a go
Oxford grips are awful. The wiring involved, the bodged looks, the potential to drain the battery…
You may as well not use the stock switch tbh. Mine only has 2 settings anyway and the Oxford heated grips on my other bikes have multiple heat settings so I'm not sure how this could be utilised with the stock switch. Use a relay triggered from somewhere so you don't accidentally leave them on.
the new ones switch themselves off after a few minutes...
OK, so factor in the time spent wiring into the power source for the Oxford grips and fitting the poxy heated hand grips and the switch/adjuster and making the wiring look half presentable.
How much has the OP actually saved himself financially and ended up with a home made amatur looking inferior product....
