Default installation instructions for hard saddlebag hardware
I am putting hard saddlebags on my Deluxe. I got the hardware online and there are no installation instructions. As I have never had hard bags before Im not sure where everything goes. Does anyone know where I can get an exploded view of the hardware or some instructions? Maybe even a picture of your bags with the lids open? Any help would be much appreciated.

Did a google search, came up with nothing, I would call the company and ask them to send you the install instructions.

dish soap water or spit should work just fine. Then pinch together, get one side to catch and push the rest through until the bag is in the groove.

Default installing the grommet
Silicone spray is best if you don't have any good old spit handy
