dont take out all the bolts...dont follow the instructions....look at the pics...decide which washers you need beforehand and do the fronts first...one side at a time....but DONT take the bolts out, loosen em but dont take em all out on both sides at once

Go off the pics! I just finished a 2007 Ultra Classic removable tour pak kit and the dealer sold me a kit that wasn't needed, but I had already opened it up. It's not that hard to do yourself.

front and rear docking hardware installed, it wasn't as bad a job as I thought. The draw back is if I want to take the tour pac off You have disconnect all the wires and tuck them under the seat. When you reinstall the tourpac you have to reconnect everything. I plan on cutting the wires under the seat and installing connectors that I can unplug so when I remove the tourpac it will have the wiring still connected to it.

The antena wires are goining to be a pain I need to figure out a way I can splice them with some sort of connector and not loose any signal. Any Idears?

Thanks
Rick
