    I'm not sure how
    It might be thermally welded. But how ever it is bonded, it is really hard not to crack the lense.

    If you have OEM ones, I'd try it out. I'd try it again with OEM ones but don't want to dish out the money right now for something that can break

    I did think about that. My hope is that with the new snorkel coming in, the dust coming in from the air vents wont be as bad as it has been. I swear thats where most of the gathering dust comes from

    Anyone ever use one of these harnesses to upgrade their headlight output? I'm not interested in HIDs or LEDs at the moment, just want get more output out of my Sylvania's.

    The brand is Donjer, its a suede textile fiber flocking kit. You just paint glue onto your dash and use a little cylinder duster to dust on the fibers.

    I guess all I've done is drive mine today. I did find out that AutoZone Gold Powersport batteries are made by DEKA. So I picked one up for my bike, but yah no truck stuff today because I don't have enough time to put the Icons in before work.

    Once everything gets buttoned up Ill let you know how it feels. Just twisting the shaft by hand (giggidy) it doesnt seem like alot of play but I bet it translates to alot more movement in the wheel.

    Also I remember you reccomended greasing doorhandle joints somewhere, Whereabout was that? I have my panels off right now chasing strange wires and thought about that.
    Pretty stoked that the p/o put dynamat in the doors already
