Re: Blackout's HELP!!!
you got pics? what brand are the covers?
they should have come with some sort of mounting hardware.
think there's one brand that you have to sort of bend in to the pocket. there are also different covers for various years, sure you got the right ones?

There should be clips in the front with velcro for you to attach to the headlight pockets. This what I remembered doing when I bought my blackout sets like 12 years ago. The rears attach with velcro too on top of the talights.

Re: Blackout's HELP!!!
hey i just bought a pair of these. how well does that velcro stick at high speeds? i plan on just drilling a hole and bolting it in there. if i ever wanna get rid of them ill just fill the hole.
Re: Blackout's HELP!!!
I had problems with the front headlight plastics flying off on me at highway speeds. I had to replace it two times then decided to f**k it. I just stayed with the rear blackouts since it was much less of a headache. However my taste changed too over the years. I would leave the front headlight blackouts off and just leave the rears on. Looks better.
