Default Adjustable Highway Pegs

OK fellas, I have a quick question of opinion to ask of you.

I'm looking at 2 different Adjustable Highway Peg Kits;

The one from Harley:
http://www.surdyke.com/AdvPartInfo.a...mber=49053-04A

or

The one from V-Twin MFG:
http://www.jpcycles.com/product/531-105

From the 2 options, the V-Twin MFG version is about $50 cheaper. I'm not overly familiar with the brand, but looking at the installation instructions it looks to be a straight rip-off of the HD version.

I'm not worried about the quality of the chrome, as I'm most likely going to be rattle-canning them black to match the bike.

Any one have any experience with either of them? Or if you just wanna leave an opinion, I'd appreciate it!

I've been looking at the J&P Cycles ones too but you also have to factor in the cost of the foot pegs themselves. So the $100 price will go up unless you have an extra set of pegs just lying around.

Yeah, I know that as well. Hoping to hit up a dealer and maybe find some cast-off that they have lying around.

But, actually BOTH kits do not come with the foot pegs, which is why I'm considering the V-Twin Version.

It's a tough decision, gamble with the cheaper or pay out the *** for peace of mind!

I have the ones straight from an HD dealer wish i would have bought the cheaper ones....

The J&P ones look exactly like the ones that came from the dealer.

I've got a set of the HD Adj Highway Pegs on a shelf in my shed. Had them on before I put forwards on my Iron.
I'm currently at work and won't be home till about 845AM EST but if you want I'll check to make sure all parts are there and we could work a deal out for them.
PM me if you're interested.
