  Ok we are not on the same page, I have the visor and the metal snap ring and it was and is a pain to put in, perhaps you are calling it an insert, on the light lens.

I can wait to see how it looks once everything is mounted on your bike!!

Do you mind teling more about the fringe and velcro on your seat.....where did you bought the fringe and velcro?? can you post more pictures or a video on how to attach it to the seat, thank you!

I bought the velcro and fringe here:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Motorcycle-Seat-Saddlebag-Floorboard-Craft-Handbag-Black-Leather-Fringe-/221714257717?

and, giving credit where credit is due, I got the idea from a thread by DrifterWood here:

Hope this helps!

;) ok so were did you get the ring?

Yeah, ring might have been a bad choice of words ... how about 3/4 ring?

This ebay picture isn't for a drifter but it shows the "ring" I was talking about.  It was a pain to snap into the correct position.

Yeah, they fit but disassemble everything in the headlight.  There is no way to make it fit otherwise, I know I tried.
I had to use 2 screwdrivers to get the ring to snap into the correct position but it's always more difficult your 1st time.
Take your time, disassemble everything and you'll get it.

Nice bling, and yes GB does have a tendency to over pack things......I know.....

bam I was told that the visor and that a trim ring would nit fit on the same headlight so now I have a mission to try next winter, and I think in gloss black the ring would really look good on my bike...thanks......

and with my new Viking saddle bags.  I can tell the velcro won't hold but it gave me a good preview as to what they would look like which I like so I'm going to order the heavy duty velcro I used on the seat.

Here is a picture of a few belt buckles I bought off Ebay.  I ground the backs down and put "studs" in to mount them in the windshield (which I shaved)

Belt buckles...  now there's a good idea...

and the only complaint I had about the transaction was that his packaging was so thourough, it took forever to "to get to" the lowers!  LOL!   Thanks Tracy.

Hey, I've seen the mail people handle packages....  Not pretty... :o  Glad they got there in good shape.

I love the light insert - looks great.

So, is the leopard print going to be a seat cover???  ;D
