Leather Lid Inserts Saddlebag Inserts? Anyone use these?
I'm looking to stiffen my saddlebags and I've been searching online and I came across Leather Lid Inserts Saddlebag Inserts. They seem to specialize in Heritage Softail Classic which is what me and my wife ride. They seem pretty good, but was wanting to get the low down on the product.
Has anyone here used their saddlebag inserts? How are they? They seem to do the trick and are they easy to install?

Look at www.bossbags.com. They have lid inserts and entire bag stiffeners. They did mine and I'm totally satisfied. Just send your bags to them and you'll have them back quickly. Mine were eight days total. They do a really nice job.

I haven't used those, but I have used http://gotsaggybags.com/ which look very similar
They did a nice job. I haven't installed the pannel on the underside of the lid but did all the others abd they definintely helped. Mine weren't in horrible shape to begin with but they certainly did what they said they would. Installation wasn't too difficult either

Boss Bags looks pretty good, but they seem a bit pricey. I'm really not looking to send them in to get them done and Got Saggy Bags just by looking at their web site I can tell i'm not interested. Plus it looks like the lid is just a flat piece of material... Boss Bags and Leather Lid Inserts seem to have a molded lid that looks more promising.
Anyone heard of Bag Bones & Bag Shapers? I can't find good pics of both products.
I think I'm leaning toward Leather Lid Inserts

I think I've seen leather lids mentioned here once or twice but most often mentioned is gotsaggybags. All positive comments. I went with Bossbags because I didn't like the idea of gluing plastic to my leather. Boss Bags rivets everything and includes a lock hasp.

I'm still doing research as well. Seem to be leaning toward Boss Bags for the lock... but I also want to do the Easy Brackets too.
