Default What a difference!
I bought and "installed" (if you want to call it that) the bullseye nut and washer on my console last night. What a huge difference that thing made in the look. Amazing how the small things sometimes can make such a big difference. Definitely recommend this to anyone who hasn't done it yet!

They replace the stainless steel washer and the acorn nut on the console. I don't have a pic, but I am sure someone will chime in here and help.

Sound's cool, I replaced the tank mounting nuts at the front of the tank and they made a big difference also.

These are pieces for a Road King. You don't have them on the other touring bikes. It's a different dash/console.

Wow, if you get a woody over that, wait till you get the HD garage door opener. You might need to call the paramedics after that install.

Is the garage door opener worth the money? Did you install it? How long did it take you?
