Not sure what you are talking about. are you talking about the chrome covers that fit along the frame rails under your seat?

havent done it yet, waiting for chrome strut bolts to show up. im pretty sure that the strut bolts need to come out too, or at least a few of them. anyway, i have a springer seat on my deluxe, so im not sure if that will change how the covers fit. but i am very anxious to install them.
