Default soos or harley goodies kit?

hello all, I would like to move footboards 1" out in my 2009 rkc. I looked at both websites and they look more or less the same. The only diference is that harley goodies front bracket is made of steel and rear is made of aluminum and soos kits seems to be made both brackets in aluminium. Dont know wich ine is better. BTW i will install them with HD extended reach footboards in order to move them out 1" and foward 1"

I would like to read some users reviews on this 2 similar items.

Thank you!

I bought the Soos 3/4 inch extenders and can't see how they could be improved upon. They really made a difference in comfort to me.

Got mine from soos. Completely satisfied. I think as far as the product goes, you'll probably be happy either way you go.
