Default usamotorpartsfactory (ebay) vented lower users?

Hey all,
I'm pondering pulling the trigger on some of these $67 ebay (Chinese) vented lowers/speaker pods and wondering if anyone here is using them? If so, long term durability/fitment/tips info appreciated. Thx

I have a different brand, but two plus years later and I'm very happy with them. Just do it, you'll like them but be advised the hardware that comes with them is cheap. I went with HD hardware, but that's just me. It helps if your bike is black to begin with.

I went with these, but there were no instructions. Any tips would be great.

It's not that hard. There's 4 points for screws to hold the glove compartment to the lower fairing. Once those are one unit, attach the bottom to the crash bar with the strap. There should be some U clips with studs on them. Those go in the cap, sliding the U onto the flats that line up with the holes in the glove compartment, facing inwards. The corresponding nuts go through the glove compartment (or speaker pod) and screws onto the studs. Fitting it up initially requires finesse.

Search Youtube. Several good videos of people doing. They all assemble the same and hardware only varies based on quick disconnect or not type used
