You need to grind down the mounting pads to change the angle. Funny thing, I put one on the Ol Lady's Sporty and didnt have to grind at all. Go figure.

Jaron B I did mine a bit differently .....I didnt grind mine, I made 2 rubber wedges out of the pads that were on the bottom of my stock seat . I didnt want to compromise the chrome , They fill the gap perfectly .It also acts as a gasket that protects the paint from any issues....

I made a small notch in the Taillamp bezel to run the wires( They plug right in to the stock receptacles that the old wires were in . The gasket supplies plenty of sealing .

I thought about that as well, just didn't know what I wanted to use yet, but now I know if I go that route. I want to grind it down, but like you I'm worried about the chrome. I know JMPcoast grinded his down and it's been like a year or so and his chrome seems fine he say. We'll see! I'm going to make a fiberglass mold and play with it before I cut into the bike

Thanks for the info
