solo seat
Hi all!! \\; I'm changing out my two-up seat for a solo seat on my FXDC. \\; I removed the two-up seat, under it was some foam stickky pads protecting the paint!! \\; So, my question is, how the heck do you remove these sticky foam pads without damaging the paint??? \\; I need to remove them before I install the solo seat!!! Thanks

RE: solo seat
Be VERY careful when you pull them up. \\;\\\\\\; MAKE SURE that the whole pad is coming up. \\;\\\\\\; Once removed use GooGone to get rid of the adhesive. \\;\\\\\\; The reason I say make sure the whole pad is coming up is that one of mine did not and it took me 2 days of work to get things back to normal. \\;\\\\\\; If you do a search on my posts you will find my thread as well as pics showing my dilemma. \\;\\\\\\; Just make sure the whole pad is coming off when you remove them.

RE: solo seat
The best way is to use a heat gun on them to soften the adhesive. \\; Run a taunt piece of fishing line under the rubber pad to cut through the adhesiive without damaging the finish. \\; If you don't have a heat gun, you may be able to get away with using a hair dryer. \\; If you don't have one of those, most my hair lies in \\;the floor of the shower, so you can use my dryer.
