I went the hardware store route because i only wanted to put one bolt on each side. I guess hardware stores by me are expensive tho because the price would not have been far off if i just went with one of the kits.

Sorry I guess I should have elaborated more. I love the mod I feel the bags are more secure than stock even though HD has put them on that way for years. Just an OCD thing for me I guess As far as paying for a kit just didn't see the need. Hope that is a better response.

I have the Brukus fasteners. Same thing basically. They work very well at 2 things.
1. They secure your bags in such as way as to prevent them from falling off and deters theft.
2. It supports the local guys just trying to make a living, rather than the big box stores. More expensive, yes. But I don't mind when it is going to an individual who has shown some inguinuity and work ethic rather to some big conglomerate.

How long are those connectors to hold the pouch on and where did you get
the pouch? I need to make up a tool kit for my bike.
Thanks

I use these to make sure bags don't fall off....better yet, I don't need any sort of tools to remove the bags......it works for me....and yes they are available at your local ACE hardware store...
