Picked up a pair of hard saddlebags yesterday for my 78 sporty and now in need of the hardware as shown. Anyone have a set like these they'd be willing to part with, or know a source? Thanks, Jim

This is too funny, you beat out my buddy on the bags (lil too steep for him i guess)
and he beat you out of the hardware. LOL You buy the sissy bar too? You have one of them
XLT's too eh?

I guess it is funny but not to me. I don't know why the seller didn't just sell them as a set. He didn't make any more money and made it a hassle for the both of us. Tell your buddy I'll take the the hardware off his hands for what he paid ;-)

No can do, he just found a brand new set never mounted......................

There is a set on e-bay right now though, covers are a tad twisted but look pretty good.

His is a 77 XLT. His signal lights are the same way but there are 2 holes
at the bottom of the rear fender where the signal light "bar" is supposed to be.
If yours is a XLT the holes will be there too, just under the tail light.

thanks for the reply. I now see the difference. '78 rear light assembly doesn't have the whole to mount the direction light bar. Will have to hunt down a 77 taillight with a light bar. Friend have an extra?
