Default Question: Rigid Mount Sideplates

Was wondering how difficult it is to install these:

Rigid Mount Sideplate Kit for FXD Models (2006)
Part No. 52856-06
MSRP US $84.95

I put similar ones on my '02 Sporty and install was a piece o' cake. These appear to be a bit different, however. The ones for the Sporty rested on TOP of the strut covers/turn signals, but these look like they go BETWEEN the covers and the fender.

Any advice from those who have already tackled these would be appreciated. If I have to disconnect/remove the turn signals to put these on, I would just as soon do some other stuff as well while I'm in there. THANKS!

it is very simple.all you do is take out the fender bolts.only do one side at a time.then slide the sideplates in between strut and fender.tighten them down with the new hardware.and repeat on other side.very easy.about 15-30 minutes.and you can find them on ebay for less then half that price.
