Hey Mchad, thanks for sharing the link. You definitely inspired me to give it a shot. I love to look and you defiantly made the kit look clean/factory made!! Great Job!!

They have been 100% reliable for me. Maybe I’m just lucky. Or careful.
Mchad, where did you get the flush mount caps?

Thx

From Harley. They are both the fuel cap that comes with the kit 75327-09C - The left side was modified per the thread I attached previously. I ordered two of the gas cap and trim ring separately from the kit.
