Default At last: chrome coil cover for Rocker and Rocker C

Finally found a chrome coil and ignition cover for the Rocker and Rocker C models. It's listed as fitting the 2011-2012 FXS Blackline..but it fits the Rockers as well. Why in the world vendors don't list it as fitting both I haven't a clue..but oh well.

Available on Ebay , or at Eastern Peformance, at this link:
http://www.easternperformance.com/pr...rome-and-Black

Costs around $45 or so. Available in plain chrome or with " skull" insert.

YAY ! Finally I can cover up that ugly-*** black plastic hand grenade. !

If I had access to lost wax casting, I'd make a cover that looked like the old pineapple grenade and have it chromed.

I added chrome trim to mine.

Default How to INSTALL!!!!!

I have ordered this part for blackline but it came with no install instructions. It is advertised as bolt on but the bracket doesnt have anything to bolt into/onto. I have emailed Drag Specialties but havent received a response. HELP please!!!

I wonder if you're supposed to fab something up yourself. What a crappy kit and I've had similar experience with DS too. I guess ya just figure it out.

I ordered the black skull one. Again no instructions. It does not work from what I found. You need to pull the cover off the ignition switch and the bracket slips behind the coil. But the switch cover doesn't fit back on.

There is a bolt at the bottom of the coil that goes in the bottom of the coil cover.

Neat item but does not fit! At least on my Blackline.
