I have a 2012 FLHTC, and I love my bike, I really do, except this.

The black console insert that says "Electra Glide Classic" that is inlaid into the chrome console panel sucks. It's so cheap, and if you even look at it the wrong way, it dents. I sometimes push there when I get on/off my bike. I see aftermarket ones for Street Glides, but so far I haven't seen any for the EG Classic.

Does anyone have any ideas? Does HD make anything? I see HD makes a Flame one and Skull one that I'm not to crazy about, but it's probably made of the same cheap material too.

Thanks
Dom

 

Interesting post Dom,
I just brought mine home last Thursday, and the dealer had to order me a new console and tour pak lid, for the console was as you say "dented" and the tour pak lid had a small spider web (blemish) in the clear coat.
We looked at the console insert and the service manager wasn't sure if the MoCo would just send that or the whole damn shootin match.
Be interesting to see what there are for viable options.

Thanks VTL, that black console part that is dented is just a "Peel and Stick" item. I'm sure they'll just send the black part.

Thanks Dawg, I saw those. Nice, but just a little over the top for me. Looking for something a little more tame I saw one from a CVO, and it looks like the insert is metal and a smaller insert. It may fit:

Any more options on this? I am in need of replacing the insert and the stock one is just boring. Thanks!

 

I had a carbon fiber looking insert from from there guys on my 07. Fit perfect and the price is right!

Got this one from JP, I'm not impressed, pricey too.

It is Billet Aluminum that has been anodized black. It will never dent though.

 

has anybody used a Hells Foundry consol

 

I've seen them, they look nice too, but I don't have an I Phone or an I Pod.

I do have the Hells Foundry Tour Pak Wall Rack they make, and it works well.

Not allot of options out there for 08 and newer FLHTC
