So I bought myself a CustomChrome Frenched Trim Ring with Visor for my Road King. I was quite excited about mounting up this new, beautiful trim ring, but when I went to seat it, the spring steel wire that fits in the top of the trim ring wasn't quite fitting. So, in my infinite genius, I decided that the best course of action would be to bend the wire to fit better. Out comes two pliers. In seconds, I had it bent.

So in Germany, there's a saying when working with nuts and bolts: "First comes tight, then comes loose." Same situation here with the wire. I went past the gentle bend point and right on to broken.

Bottom line, I need a new wire to go inside my trim ring to make it mount.

Anyone got one or know where I can get one?

 

Get ahold of Custom Chrome and have them send you a replacement part.

 

Yeah, that's my first thought. I have been through a lot of replacement parts for broken bits all over the bike lately.

Has anyone else had issues getting this part mounted up?
