Default Do I really need to buy this...Help

Turkey run hooked me up with a free two-up seat for my 07 fxd. Appearantly I need a "seat bumper kit" to install the seat.(p/n 51653-06). What is this? HD doesn't show a photo on their site. It is only seven dollars but I don't have time this week to ride an hour to the dealer and still make it to work on time. Is it just a couple pieces of foam? Something I could just make myself? Thanks.

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure its basically a set of rubber feet to protect the fender and give it support. Its probably something you want to put on

It is just a couple pieces of foam and a template to put them on so the seat will not scratch the fender. And yes you could make your own.

Glued to the fender eh? I don't like the sound of that. I want to be able to switch back to the solo seat without having to look at a rubber mosaic on my fender.

Stickthem to the underside of the seat so that they aren't left behind when you want to go solo.

Try Radio Shack for "test equipment feet". Their little rubber squares with adhesive on the back.
