These really do look great! I wonder if they would interfere with the HD Fog Lights I just completed installing on the engine guard bar. Does anyone have these with the HD Fog Lights? Any clearance or reflection issues?

Regards,
JB

Fork mounted wind deflectors on a FLHX?-img_0559.jpg put these on today. they are awesome. buffeting is GONE! about a 70 mi. ride back from Santa Fe today the air coming from below up the legs and chest feels like it is 90% eliminated. these things really do work great. they are really very good quality and take all of 10 mins. to install. if you are looking to get rid of the head in a paint shaker feeling on your ST. GLIDE'S get em'.

For those of you who've installed these, is there a cut-out for the turn-signal cable? IOW, can you just loosen the two screws and slip the deflectors in place or must the turn-signals be removed? Hard to tell by the photos on the Ebay page.

Next question, will these clear with fairing lowers installed? There's no mention of this in the Ebay auction but the HD deflectors don't fit with lowers. If they do fit I also wonder about airflow with lowers, as this may cut airflow in a crucial place, but it's hard to tell.
