Default RE: Lowers

I added them to my SG and it's my favorite mod. I just put on the quick detach kit. You can take them on and off within a couple of minutes. I had them off for a short ride and much prefer having them on, for looks, comfort and just about everything else. When it get's hot I open the vents. Who knows though...with the new kit, I'll probably have them on and off this summer.

I leave mine on all year round also, the vents work well. I have 6.5" Sony speakers mounted in the gloveboxes.

Wally...go to eglidegoodies.com. You can order them there. They are a Rivco product. Very high quality parts and makes taking them on and off a snap.
