  • Allen, I tried to respond to your PM but screwed up somehow so my reply to your request is posted under my original post for the free seats, etc. Let me know what you wish me to do.

  • Also, if you look at the trim ring on the Mini it’s deeper than the rings on the TD’s. Not a satisfactory install for us at all. But since I like the vintage look of the guards I decided to keep them and use a “Mickey Mouse” way to attach them.

  • I’d be more than happy to take them off your hands. How would you like to get payment for the shipping charges? I’ll keep watching this site but I frequently get lost and never seem to return to where I was. Otherwise  you can reply to rj50willys@msn.comHope to hear from you.Richard
