Looks very nice. I was thinking about buying a set today, but they did not have them in stock.

My local dealer had some on order for 2 weeks, I went in a week ago and they put in an order for me, mine came in today, theirs are still on order.

Guess I'm special.

Got them on order, did you have to drill any?

You have to drill out the old rivets from the inside of the tourpak, they are aluminum so it was not too bad, except for the top bottom two in the lid as they are hidden by the weather seal for the lid.

I took a metal putty knife and held it over the weather seal as I pushed down to expose the rivets so I could drill without the bit eating into the seal, the bit just rode against the putty knife.

Thanks for the pics and the how to. Looks good. I have had the part number in my wallet for a couple weeks, just have not had time to get to the dealer to order.

You know that is a good question. It looks like they would might be worth a try to see if they will line up.
