Has anyone seen a mod to cut up a pair of non vented lower fairings to install the vented glove box doohickey?

 

I got lower fairings, no hardware, no vents, no gloves boxes Etc. but was wondering...if with a Dremel I could somehow fit this in...

 

The non vented lowers are a different shape, and by the time you got it cut up, glassed in and painted you could have bought aftermarket ones (in certain colors).

 

Exactly what I needed to know. Not concerned with paint and what not. A very generous guy gave me a set of lowers for free and I was just wondering if I could cut in the vents but wasn't sure if they would fit. Was going to finish the paint myself over winter Thanks!

I don't want to discourage you, try it if you want but you'll be happier in the end if you just go aftermarket especially if you can do your own paint.

 

There's a company that makes inserts. Let me find the link.

LV5 or something. But it looks easy to do.

 

I I'll give them a whirl this winter and decide on the vents after. I guess I probably need some gloves boxes though and hardware. These thing have quick disconnect hardware or is that just for new lowers?

 

I see what you guys mean by buying the aftermarket lowers...way cheaper. Still turns my stomach knowing I paid 400 bucks for 2012 HD saddle bags when I could have gotten aftermarket 2014 style bags for same price.
