once you know where you have to sit those bags, drill out those holes. I also used a bit of rubber mat for vibration dampening.

if you can sling a little fiberglass, get some used bags and fix 'em up. If not... get help becouse there's much more

bags come with a channel for a bar mount.
cut inside bottoms flat with the braket mounting channel and glass the hole flat across.
cardboard and tinfoil can do wonders with fiberglass.

pay very close attention to the clearance for the softail swing arm. it would be a real drag to do all this work and then have a pothole send that bolt up and into that fiberglass bag.

once the bags are properly set into the bottom, whip up some upper brackets to hang off the rear strut and seriously stabalize those bags. I used some metal strips and bent them to the exact specs I needed. Your bikes may differ, but you get the idea...

Wiring up the rear for the trailer hitch connection.
Had to get a little creative, since I was too cheap to buy a proper wiring kit from the hitch manufacturer.
