I put a dash pouch on my classic, found one from a softail and used the good velcro to put it on, very handy, looked good too.

I bought the HD piece for $20 so I could put the Street Glide seat on my Electra Glide. Looks ok, not quite as integrated as I had hoped for. Most likely I'll watch eBay and pick up a full console and just swap it back/forth as it isn't that hard.

The 2000 Screamin Eagle RoadGlide used a black power coated dash that looks pretty good...
