gotsaggybags.com

These were the best for my 02 Heritage. Complete kit. Came with everything including the aircraft glue for the lid. It took about an hour to install them outside of waiting for the glue to dry to the lid.

Just lay a folded towel on the stud side of the bag lids and the table, and put something to hold it down overnight.

It more or less tuned my saddle bags into a sort of hardbag. Worked great.

It cost me $180 Canadian a few years ago. More than likely cheaper in the states.

Agreed, gotsaggybags.com is the way to go. The cost of mine was $125 delivered. If your bags have been exposed to very much rain, you will likely have to sand/grind down the edges in the front and rear inserts to fit. I had to sand down almost a quarter inch on each insert because of leather shrinkage.
