Product Usage Instructions

Remove Saddle Bags from the motorcycle. Inside the bag, you will find 2 pins that hold the bag in place. Turn the pins to remove bags.
Place a soft cover on a secure table, then place the Bag on the table to avoid causing any scratching or damage to the bag.
With masking tape, cover the front edge of the bag lid where you will be placing the cutting template.
Test fit the template to make sure you have all painted surfaces covered with masking tape and that the template can be firmly mounted with no gaps.
Place the template on the bag lid and drill a screw in either one of the two center holes. Before drilling in the second screw, double-check that the template is still in position and has not shifted. After that has been confirmed, drill the second screw into position. Now your template should be in place and have no visible gaps between the template and the bag lid.
With a 5/16 drill bit, begin to drill out the 15 pilot holes on the template.
Using a jig saw or rotary drill, begin to cut along the template lines until all cuts have been made. Use care and go slow to ensure you make accurate cuts.
Remove the template and masking tape.
Carefully sand the newly cut edges so that there is no debris or hanging material left from cutting.
If there is not a stock wire hole for wiring in the rear of the bag on the side facing the tire, please drill out a hole using the 5/16 drill. This hole is to be used to run wires out of the bag lids.
Take the bottom speaker mounting plate and top speaker grill mounting plate and sandwich the bag lid so the bottom plate is on the inside of the bag lid and the top grill mounting plate is on the outer side of the bag lid.
Use the provided 4 screws and secure the two plates together, making them tight so no gaps can be seen on the outer grill bag lid plate and the bag lid itself.
