I put them on my Road King. About 20-30 minutes to install. They even come with a little sticker that says they are for appearance purposes and are not designed to protect your bags during impact. But, not to worry, the sticker pealed right off.

I'd love to find a way but it seems that with our integrated fender skirt/taillight assembly, it's not possible to mount at the rear. I do have the front saddlebag guards on, but the rear is the problem.

If anyone has done it, please pass along tips.

Didn't say they mounted to the fender, but on the Street Glide the fender skirt blocks where the rear of the guards pass to mount to the support brackets.

there is a guy here who put them on his SG -- I believe he drilled the holes in the fender skirt and used the rubber attenae on both sides the skirt

Thanks! The pipes are American Custom (modified stock pipes) and the fishtail tips are from Kuryakyn. They are designed to fit on stock pipes, so they fit fine on the American Custom pipes. Looks and sounds great.
