For those of you who haven't seen the DIY air bags thread check it out here... https://www.hdforums.com/forum/touri...installed.html
I just completed this install for about $200. No test rides yet since it's raining, but I'm definitely looking forward to it.
Anyways, here's a video of the completed project.

Hubby and I just upgrade, his 2013 Road Glide, her 2013 Street Glide. Instead of from the bottom (which would have been easier...had we read this post first lol) we just cut existing antenna down to about 16" and picked up pkg of 4 black rubber tips (vacuum tub caps) from Autozone for a whopping $2. Saved us $28 each.

I had this gauge visor on my duece and missed it on my '09 Road King. (74661-04) I bought it at my dealer without checking what bikes it works with. The speedo looks the same it should work. Well it didn't. I had some thicker double sided tape laying around and the wife pulled the thin black stuff out and put the thicker tape around the inside. Pulled the backing off and it stuck right on. Been on there for 4 years, driving rain and many washes. I like the look on the King.

Front fairing shell = $25 including the chrome trim (swap meet). Mismatched fairing lowers + 1 glove box = $35 (swap meet). Matching glove box = $40 (ebay). Lower fairing caps = $50 - hardest to find (ebay). The top box is a Mutazu = $110. Can of Krylon flat black spray paint = $6. All quick detach on a '02 FLHRIFF. Oh, the sundowner seat w/adjustable backrest was $80 (ebay).

Another saddlebag organizer
For those of you on a budget,i organized the interior of my saddlebags with a product from the hardware store called a bucket boss. Made to add pockets to the outside of a 5 gallon bucket, it is made in two pieces. Cut apart and velcro to inside of bag for less then $20 including velcro.
