Default So confused here...need help please!

I'm wanting to install the visor style trim ringson my front and rear turn signals. The front and rear turn signals are flat and not the bullet style. Here's where the confusion sets in...got this off HD's website and also off the back of the package when I looked at it at the dealership:

"Fits flat lens turn signals on front and rear of '88-later Touring (except FLHX, FLHRS and '04-later FLTRI), rear of '94-later FLSTC, '94-'97 FLSTN and '06 FLST models."

I have an 05 Heritage Classic. What gives? Are there 2 seperate visor style trim rings...one for the fronts and one for the rears? Here's a pic:

Brian, the trim rings for the front turn signals are the same for the rear.

And just so you dont get confused, dont forget to install the little black rubber band thingie, goes between the lens cap and the housing, creates a gap for the trip ring to set into.
I was installing mine oneday and said what the ^%$( this stupid thing does't go on here, these are the wrong ones, went to the stealer talked to the parts guy who sold them to me, hecame out with the screw driver and showed me how they went on, he did the first one and I the remaining 3.

Good luck man, what you need is a good counter guy who knows his stuff, you will know who he is when you find him, I go back to the same guy everytime.

Ride On[8D]

So, I will need to take the lens caps off for the front and the rear (as if I were changing the bulb) and put the black rubber band between the cap and the housing? Correct?
