Default RJ's

I've ordered a set of RJ"s originals for my 08 Ultra. How complicated is the install? I'm not much of a wrench at this point. How about some help from you Vets?

Before you attach the velcro, place them and loosely wire-tie them through the eyelets and cut outs in the seat anchor. Fit the seat back on and sit on it a bit. This will help bend the RJ's into position. Remove the seat and add the velcro.

with the 08 ultra you will need a torx wrench, can't remember the size, you have to add two washers under the tank bracket. it's simple. if i can do it, anyone can.
