I usaully put the middle windshield screw in and then try to put the lowers ones in, does anybody have a "easy way to do this (especially the guy's that have had their fairings off more times then they can count)!! Is it better to put the two side ones in first, then the bottom ones. Any help will be appreciated!! I will also let you know if I can hear any difference with the upgrade!! I also am going to ask..should I put the polyfill back in or not?? MM
I say no poly...
I do exactly as you...middle windshield screw, then bottom 2 and work my way up. Never is easy though. Lol

Funny that's EXACTLY what I was thinking when I sliced my finger on the Dynamat foil...LOL ... Thanks for all the suggestions and help! It wasn't so much about the fit, it fit good, just hard to get those 2 bottom screws in, figured out I COULD get my hands in there to start those Be-aches (Thanks Slye) ) got it on no problem this morning... Seems to sound better in the garage, I'll take it for a ride tommrow and see what it sounds like on the road!!!
Thanks again boy's!!
