Default 07 FXDL-need forward controls-do it myself or stealer?
I hate bringing my bikes in to ths stealer for anything but I can't live with the mid-controls that came stock on my Lowrider. I'm pretty handy with basic maintainance and have basic tools. Can I change out my mid-controls for forward controls myself or should I go to the stealer?

You should be able to handle it yourself. Check out these threads for more:

As soon as I get paid I'm putting forwards on my '97 Dyna.

Nothing too it. I put em on my 94 FXDL. Most stuff from HD comes with pretty detailed instructions.
