| Very easy to install. Look at these new chrome vents to see where the tabs are located...the stock tabs are in the same location. A very skinny screwdriver easily pops the stock vents out. Before installing, make sure the vents close down (the only install one way), then just push them in. |

| Had a bad original vent on the left side so ordered these. Used a business card to protect the paint finish while prying old ones out with small screw driver. Suggest you double check the movement of the vent before installing so there are no catches. (I did not have a problem as both worked smoothly.) Make sure if you take yours out you know which is the longer side (depth) as there is no marking on these that I could see saying left or right. They snapped in snugly and operate smoothly. |

| Careful removing stock vents. Use small plastic or cardboard to protect your paint as you use a very thin narrow screwdriver to gently pry the pins from each side. Notice the 2 locations on the side of the new ones and insert screwdriver there. Gently pull one side and repeat. They simply snap back in. NOTICE there a Left and Right. Notice the L and R on the part number so you don't mix or force it. Little pricy for the value, but if chrome really pops with your bike/trike color, then these really stand out. |

| These air vents were on my pre-owned Wing when I bought it. They were slightly blemished probably due to lack of attention. After carefully applying a mild polish and buffing them, I got them into what I will call okay condition. The fins are looser than I would prefer and I find myself repositioning them while riding. I plan to eventually replace them with the same brand in due time since I'm sure to do a better job of maintaining them. I love the luxury look that they give my Goldwing. |

| Well, I must be a sucker for punishment because I bought a new set. The left still doesn't fit right. I figured out that the tabs on the fairing are closer to the front than the cut out on the vent, hence they don't line up. Needs to be fixed in the molding of the vent. To get it to work I pulled out the dremmel tool and with a small grinding wheel, ground out a little bit of the cut out on the vent so things would line up. Seems to have solved the problem because it fits nice and tight now. Good luck. |

| Just an update on a previous review for this high priced little item. The left insert never did fit that great and I was pushing it back into place every now and then. Well, the other day it fell right out onto the highway and after getting run over a few times was left to a bunch of scattered pieces of shiney plastic all over the road. So, do I buy a new set or put the factory ones back in? |
