Chrome Switch housing
The chrome switch housing cap kits, how do the compare to the actual chrome housing?
I mean do they look cheap, can you tell the difference by sight? Do they last?
And finally, are the ones offered by HD the only ones or can someone recommend others?

OK...
But HD offers what looks like caps I fit over my current housing and buttons, and a replacement housing that is chrome.
How do those compare to each other? Is there a noticeable visual difference?
I mean does going cheap...look cheap?

The caps are the buttons that go in the housing. They have a housing cover which is a substitute for the chrome housing. Never seen the cover, I have the chrome housing and chrome buttons and they look good. have had them for a little more than 1 year and they still look perfect

When I bought my fatboy it had the left housing changed and the guy I bought it from gave me the right one to do myself. The chrome housing look great, it wasn't super hard to change-a bit of a PITA getting all the wires to go where you want, but do-able. I'm not sure of the cost difference between the covers and new chrome housings, but if it's under $100 I'd say go with the new chrome housings as they look like they were meant to be there and not an afterthought. Just take your time and follow those horrible directions they give you.
