Default V-twin mfg highway bar install

Hello all! Have really been enjoying looking around the forum!

Just picked up a set of these: http://www.vtwinmfg.com/webapp/wcs/s..._143380_143381

They come with NO instructions. The hardware kit comes with 2 bolts, 2 washers, and 2 more washers which are split in the middle. I've been eyeballing the bike and I see where everything goes. I'm just wondering what washers to use where. Has anybody ever put one of these bars on? They're identical to the Harley mustache bars as well in case anyone has ever installed those. It seems like an easy enough project but I am one of those guys who can screw anything up! Lol. Thanks everyone!

Put the lock (split) washer on the bolt first, then the flat, then bolt through part.

The split washer is a locking washer. You use both washers, placing the locking washer next to the bolt.
